I almost qualify.:disapprove:
If you post one for males w/o, I'm your huckleberry:)
I dont get their quals. Like sometimes i can do 1 minute ones, sometimes 3, and then sometimes not. Maybe they are just looking for different speakers. Ive never been able to get 5 minute ones though. But its fun to do the 1 or 3 minute ones. Easy and quick payment plus they give a tiny bonus if you do it quick

I've done enough surveys to not only have seen the same question a million times but I'm now recognizing the same stock photos used again and again, by unrelated requesters from different places...
That's because Jharkan @Jharkan runs half the academic researcher accounts on Mturk.

You could ask him. He's here now.:) It has to do with quality rating. Talk to him. He's nice and doesn't bite, much.:p

kjAOIHIWOEIO haven't ever done one of these Research Tasks that are up. Only have done the "answer questions" ones (near 500 in the last month or so, no rejects) - of course I fail the first HIT and it's a test because I didn't have my coffee and I'm dumb and read something wrong. Reaching out to see if the disqual can be taken away. Fingers crossed.

the one he quoted said in the title it was for moms with 0-3 year old kids, the title usually says some requirement for certain demographics if it has one

My favorite is always the ACs. Every question has been yes/no or less than 10 words and then you spring the same cookie-cutter long-ass paragraph on me with 32 options?

No I understand that. Its just sometimes i can do the 1 minute ones and then different days i cant. Like i said, hes probably just getting different views so its not the same person over and over

I just got this article on Google Now, why does it still catch me by surprise that Google spies on me? :wink:

(actually I searched to see if this was already mentioned, it was yesterday in an 'appropriate' thread by electrolyte @electrolyte, and mentions MTC, seems pretthy accurate other than saying there is no way to rate requesters like they rate us (?) :

Inside Amazon's clickworker platform: How half a million people are being paid pennies to train AI

Internet platforms like Amazon Mechanical Turk let companies break jobs into smaller tasks and offer them to people across the globe. But, do they democratize work or exploit the disempowered?
