Masters get higher payment for their work? Seems like a worthwhile study...

Higher payment means stuff like this pays 2c instead of 1c. It's why masters are all rich.

Masters is nothing more than a sales technique for Amazon...to ask for more payment for the same thing. Change the color of the merchandise and charge more.

I'm willing to bet half a ham sandwich our batch work is better though.

It's kinda funny. Every time I see studies like this it's always related to surveys. Researchers always talk about MTurk like as if the workers that participate in their studies are an accurate representation of the entire workforce. I suppose, to them, those people are all that matter, but I can't help but feel like when they release stuff like this it can have negative repercussions that affect everyone, including that huge population of workers that they didn't even bother to study.

Studies like this for sure put me in a snitches get stitches mode.

Yeah, I've had one of the best weeks that I've had in a while and I'm not sure if I've even done a single masters HIT this week. It has all been other quals.

one of my pet peeves is when they ask how many studies I've completed. as if I keep track of those separately from the other batch hits I do, or want to go through my work history and break it out (and potentially break those out from opinion polls as well...)

When that question is bubbles and the max is 50 or 100.

I wonder how much the surveys they put up to study workers even paid. That can have a huge impact on work quality and they probably don't even realize it.

or how complicated the task is. I'm sure the data looks really similar the lower the complexity.

 

[cb456]

we asked masters and non-masters all to count to 7, and we were amazed that the results were similar.
