Data Quality Concerns when Crowdsourcing Scientific Tasks
•
1 like•217 views
From classifying images or texts to responding to surveys, tapping into the knowledge of crowds to complete complex tasks has become a common strategy in social and information sciences. Although the timeliness and cost-effectiveness of crowdsourcing may provide desirable advantages to researchers, the data it generates may be of lower quality for some scientific purposes. The quality control mechanisms, if any, offered by common crowdsourcing platforms may not provide robust measures of data quality. This study explores whether research task participants may engage in motivated misreporting whereby participants tend to cut corners to reduce their workload while performing various scientific tasks online. We conducted an experiment with three common crowdsourcing tasks: answering surveys, coding images, and classifying online social media content. The experiment recruited workers from three sources: a crowdsourcing platform for crowd workers, a commercial survey panel provider for online panelists, and a research volunteering website for citizen scientists. The analysis seeks to address the following two questions: (1) whether online panelists, crowd workers or volunteers may engage in motivated misreporting differently and (2) whether the patterns of misreporting vary by different task types. We further seek to examine potential correlation between the patterns of motivated misreporting and the data quality of complex scientific research tasks. The study closes with suggestions of quality assurance practices of incorporating collective intelligence to improve the system for massive online information analysis in social science research.

The New Polling Mix: Increasing Accuracy With Online Surveys
Political polling season is kicking into high gear – and pollsters want to ensure they are getting the most accurate data possible. While much of traditional polling is done on the phone, it has proven that it is not as accurate as it once was. What can be done?
Check out the deck from our webinar, The New Polling Mix: Increasing Accuracy With Online Surveys, to learn how incorporating online surveys into your polling mix can increase your overall accuracy.
Transforming assessment and feedback through technology at Manchester Metropo...
The intersection of assessment and feedback with technology is contested. It is important to have robust discussions about the role technology should play, and the place for human judgements.
Since 2010, Manchester Metropolitan University has been attempting to situate decisions about the implementation of technologies to support assessment and feedback within an evidence-based framework of good practice, which prioritises academic decision-making and supports development of assessment literacy (Price, Rust, O'Donovan, Handley, & Bryant, 2012).

New Age Of Polling
Since the 2016 election, there has been a trend in public opinion and polling to diversify methodology beyond phone to a more hybrid approach that can include many different survey modes. Online surveys can be a crucial competent of any new approach.
Check out the deck from our webinar, The New Age of Polling, to learn more about the importance of online polling, and how the sample that drives online surveys matters.
Bernie malinoff training day - 2011
Bernie Malinoff from element54 gave a presentation on online questionnaire design principles. He discussed the importance of consistency in survey design to obtain accurate data. Eye tracking research showed that respondents do not always read questions fully, so design must guide attention. Different question formats, like sliders versus radio buttons, can produce response variance up to 36%. Minimum standards like horizontal layouts improve usability. Proper error messages are also important to help respondents self-correct. The goal is to engage respondents and obtain high-quality data through an optimized user experience.
CUTGroup Detroit Slides for CUTGroup Collective Call
On Monday, November 7, 2016, Smart Chicago Collaborative held the first CUTGroup Collective Community call. The goal of the CUTGroup Collective is to convene organizations and institutions in cities to help others establish new CUTGroups, create a new community, and share and learn from one another. For our first community call, we want to highlight CUTGroup Detroit’s story. Over the last few months, a collaboration across multiple entities invested in Detroit– the City of Detroit, Data Driven Detroit, and Microsoft– recruited for and conducted their first CUTGroup test. On our first call, the team involved will talk about their successes and challenges in building CUTGroup Detroit.
Slides were created by the CUTGroup Detroit team, which includes the City of Detroit, Data Driven Detroit, and Microsoft.
Engaging with Users on Public Social Media
My talk from Carnegie Mellon's HCII Seminar on April 24, 2013.
Abstract:
On some social media platforms, such as Twitter, Youtube, Pinterest, and tumblr, much of the content generated by users is publicly accessible and communication can be easily initiated between strangers who have never previously communicated before. The communities that have risen up around these platforms, particularly on Twitter, can also be inclusive and supportive of interactions between strangers. The public and open nature of these communities creates an opportunity to create a new kind of crowdsourcing system, where individuals are identified who may be good candidates to complete various tasks based on their published content. We explore the potential of such a system through several information collection tasks, examining the response rate and information quality that can be obtained through such a system. We also explore a means of leveraging users' previous social media content to predict their likelihood of response and optimize our system's collection behavior. At IBM Research - Almaden, we are now looking to extend these ideas to additional domains, including proactive and reactive customer support, and precision marketing campaigns.
Thesis Presentation
The document discusses a study evaluating different user feedback systems for search engines. It describes previous work using implicit and explicit user feedback to improve search result relevance. The study collected both voluntary and mandatory feedback from users in controlled and uncontrolled search scenarios. Decision trees were built from the collected data and showed that voluntary feedback systems achieved higher classification accuracy than mandatory systems, supporting the hypothesis that voluntary feedback is higher quality.

In pursuit of augmented intelligence
By Derek Wang - FOUNDER AND CEO AT STRATIFYD INC
Description:
Everyone is talking about big data but there are some misunderstanding.
What is Augmented Intelligence. 1) Human vs computer 2)Human with computer is more powerful than computer or human 3) Augmented intelligence is human intelligence + machine learning
Some case studies to indicate the power of augmented intelligence

Tutorial: Context-awareness In Information Retrieval and Recommender Systems
The document provides an overview of a tutorial on context-awareness in information retrieval and recommender systems. It discusses topics such as information overload, solutions like information retrieval (e.g. search engines) and recommender systems (e.g. movie recommendations). It then covers context and context-awareness, giving examples like how recommendations may change based on location, time, user intent, etc. It also discusses incorporating context-awareness into information retrieval and recommender systems to improve recommendations.
Measuring Relevance in the Negative Space
The document discusses using negative space, or hidden or missing data, to improve machine learning and algorithmic systems by connecting related concepts that may not be explicitly linked. It provides examples of how analyzing relationships between terms in a semantic knowledge graph can lead to more diverse and less biased recommendations and search results. The talk argues that simulating hypothetical user interactions could help identify potential issues with algorithm changes before exposing real users.
Practical Approaches to Sharing Information
The document summarizes the results of Raytheon's efforts to improve their information management and search capabilities. It found that most information was unstructured and not tagged, leading to duplication and difficulty finding information. User surveys identified needs like filtering searches by attributes. Raytheon implemented taxonomies in key areas and saw improvements like increased search and category usage after launching an updated search tool.
Detecting Good Abandonment in Mobile Search
Web search queries for which there are no clicks are referred to as abandoned queries and are usually considered
as leading to user dissatisfaction. However, there are many
cases where a user may not click on any search result page
(SERP) but still be satis ed. This scenario is referred to
as good abandonment and presents a challenge for most ap-
proaches measuring search satisfaction, which are usually
based on clicks and dwell time. The problem is exacerbated
further on mobile devices where search providers try to in-
crease the likelihood of users being satis ed directly by the
SERP. This paper proposes a solution to this problem us-
ing gesture interactions, such as reading times and touch
actions, as signals for di erentiating between good and bad
abandonment. These signals go beyond clicks and charac-
terize user behavior in cases where clicks are not needed to
achieve satisfaction. We study di fferent good abandonment
scenarios and investigate the di erent elements on a SERP
that may lead to good abandonment. We also present an
analysis of the correlation between user gesture features and
satisfaction. Finally, we use this analysis to build models to
automatically identify good abandonment in mobile search
achieving an accuracy of 75%, which is signi ficantly better
than considering query and session signals alone. Our fundings have implications for the study and application of user
satisfaction in search systems.
Protland Trail blazers
The Portland Trail Blazers were facing slowing ticket sales revenues as the team struggled with relevance. Marketing research was conducted to identify actions to increase ticket sales. Surveys found issues with the purchase process and information technology revealed the fan base was older. Experiments showed lower prices near the "Find Tickets" button increased revenues. Actions taken included improving the website, reducing fees, and targeting demographics. These actions led to increased traffic, ticket sales, and new, younger buyers. Future marketing may include digital ads in Seattle, a strong market for individual games.
Toward Hybrid Computing
The document discusses the work of Joe McCarthy in hybrid computing, which mediates connections between people, places and things both online and offline. It summarizes three of McCarthy's projects that aimed to promote community: MusicFX helped democratize music selection at gyms, Proactive Displays enhanced connections at conferences, and C3 Collage increased sharing and relationships in workplaces. The document concludes by outlining some open challenges in hybrid computing regarding privacy, evaluation of systems in real-world settings, and mechanisms for situated serendipity.
Technology Motivators and Usage in Non-Profit Arts Organizations
This presentation was given at the 2007 Americans for the Arts Convention by Carnegie Mellon\'s Center for Arts Management and Technology. The goal of this project was to identify and understand the motivations behind information technology decisions in arts organizations. These motivations and decision-making processes were applied to help explain why some arts organizations may lag behind other not-for-profit organizations in technology adoption. While the unequal distribution of technology is partially due to an organization’s financial standing and the availability of “risk capital,” these two factors alone cannot fully account for the present divide.
Machine learning
This document provides an overview of machine learning including its definition, components that can be learned, and common machine learning methods. It discusses how machine learning can be applied to problems like autonomous driving, speech recognition, and personalized news recommendations. The document outlines general steps in a machine learning process and provides an example of using the K-means clustering algorithm to classify movie critics. It also describes how machine learning could be used for problems like recycling sorting, spam filtering, and product recommendations.

2. It discusses various methods for collecting primary and secondary data, including surveys, experiments, observation, and qualitative research techniques.
3. It also covers important considerations for marketing research such as questionnaire design, sampling, and ensuring samples are representative of the target population.
Data & Marketing Analytics Theatre; The democratisation of market research
The document discusses how market research is being democratized through social media and online communities. It provides examples of how companies like Sony Music and Phillips have used online surveys and communities like Toluna to get fast feedback on new products and marketing campaigns. Toluna's online panel of 4 million members in 42 countries allows companies to create targeted surveys, test concepts, and get thousands of responses within hours to help guide business decisions. The new model is seen as more engaging for participants compared to traditional surveys by offering social rewards like visibility and impact instead of just monetary incentives.

This document provides 40 tips for user experience design and research. Some key tips include:
- Conduct user research first before developing products to understand user needs.
- Test websites using only the keyboard to ensure full accessibility.
- Add ARIA attributes like aria-live and aria-atomic to dynamically updating content.
- Navigate every product with a screen reader to catch accessibility issues.
- Consider usability for all types of users including those with mobility or cognitive impairments.
- Continually test with users and get feedback to improve products based on real user needs.
The tips cover a wide range of topics from research methods, accessibility, interface design, and more.
Comparison GWAP Mechanical Turk
This document compares two approaches to human computation: games with a purpose (GWAP) and microtask crowdsourcing. [1] GWAP disguises tasks as online games to attract players, while microtask crowdsourcing pays workers small amounts for individual tasks. [2] The document describes an experiment that rebuilt an ontology engineering game as microtasks on Amazon Mechanical Turk. [3] It found that both approaches effectively generated valid contributions, but GWAP had more diversity while microtask crowdsourcing had lower development costs.
Combining Survey and Wearable Data on Exercise and Sleep
This document summarizes two studies combining survey and wearable device data on exercise and sleep. The first study had participants complete a survey on physical activity, sedentary behavior and sleep, then retrieved their Fitbit data and linked it to their survey responses. It found 74% of participants were male, 82% white, with a median age of 31. The second study used latent variable models to estimate true health behavior values from linked survey and device data from the Add Health study, in order to account for error in both data sources.

Comparison GWAP Mechanical Turk
This document compares two approaches to human computation: games with a purpose (GWAP) and microtask crowdsourcing. [1] GWAP disguises tasks as online games to attract players, while microtask crowdsourcing pays workers small amounts for individual tasks. [2] The document describes an experiment that rebuilt an ontology engineering game as microtasks on Amazon Mechanical Turk. [3] It found that both approaches effectively generated valid contributions, but GWAP had more diversity while microtask crowdsourcing had lower development costs.

Combining Survey and Wearable Data on Exercise and Sleep
This document summarizes two studies combining survey and wearable device data on exercise and sleep. The first study had participants complete a survey on physical activity, sedentary behavior and sleep, then retrieved their Fitbit data and linked it to their survey responses. It found 74% of participants were male, 82% white, with a median age of 31. The second study used latent variable models to estimate true health behavior values from linked survey and device data from the Add Health study, in order to account for error in both data sources.
Data Quality Concerns when Crowdsourcing Scientific Tasks
Crowdsourcing has become a popular means to solicit assistance for scientific research. From classifying images or texts to responding to surveys, tapping into the knowledge of crowds to complete complex tasks has become a common strategy in social and information sciences. Although the timeliness and cost-effectiveness of crowdsourcing may provide desirable advantages to researchers, the data it generates may be of lower quality for some scientific purposes. The quality control mechanisms, if any, offered by common crowdsourcing platforms may not provide robust measures of data quality. This study explores whether research task participants may engage in motivated misreporting whereby participants tend to cut corners to reduce their workload while performing various scientific tasks online. We conducted an experiment with three common crowdsourcing tasks: answering surveys, coding images, and classifying online social media content. The experiment recruited workers from three sources: a crowdsourcing platform for crowd workers, a commercial survey panel provider for online panelists, and a research volunteering website for citizen scientists. The analysis seeks to address the following two questions: (1) whether online panelists, crowd workers or volunteers may engage in motivated misreporting differently and (2) whether the patterns of misreporting vary by different task types. We further seek to examine potential correlation between the patterns of motivated misreporting and the data quality of complex scientific research tasks. The study closes with suggestions of quality assurance practices of incorporating collective intelligence to improve the system for massive online information analysis in social science research.
Three Studies on Supplementing Survey Data with Active Data
As survey costs increase and response rates decrease, researchers are looking to alternative methods to collect data from study subjects. Passive data are data collected from subjects without posing questions and recording responses. Examples are passive data are: location data collected from smartphones; applications installed on smartphones; activity data from fitness devices such as fitbits. Because they are collected without subject involvement, passive data may offer a way to reduce the burden born by our research subjects while also allowing us to collect high quality data needed for social science research. However, preliminary research into how to collect and analyze passive data is needed. In this talk, I present three research studies which use passive data to improve the quality and/or reduce the burden of survey data. The talk will focus on what we have learned and what research remains to be done.
Interviewer Involvement in Selection Shapes the Relationship between Response...
A high survey response rate may be a sign that interviewers are not following directions and that your data are full of undercoverage and nonresponse error. Presentation at #ITSEW workshop June 2018
Several studies have shown that, contrary to most researchers' expectations, high response rates are not correlated with low bias in survey data. In this paper we show that the relationship between response rates and bias is moderated by the type of sampling method used. When interviewers are involved in selecting the sample of households for the survey, high response rates can in fact be a sign of high bias. We suggest that this relationship is due to interviewers' incentives to select households with high response propensities.
Response Rates Impact Data Quality, But not How you Might Think
delivered at World Bank, part of Development Data Group Learning Series
Washington DC, 2016-03-07
Response rates do not always provide an accurate depiction of data quality. Research based on a large multi-country survey indicate that when interviewers play a substantial role in sample selection, interviewer manipulation may artificially generate high response rates. For example, when using the random walk selection technique, interviewers should select every kth household, but they have substantial leeway in deciding which household is the kth one, and may preferentially select those where someone is home. Or, when rostering a household to select a random respondent, interviewers may leave off household members who are seldom at home. If many interviewers engage is such behaviors, a high response rate may in fact be the result of biased sample selection and therefore indicate low data quality.
There are two lessons from these findings. First, response rates should not be used as the sole or primary proxy for data quality. Second, whenever possible, interviewers’ role in sample selection should be minimized. The talk concludes with a review of alternative sampling methods that take advantage of geospatial data such as satellite photos, drone imagery and handheld GPS devices. The ideal sampling techniques are ones that minimize interviewer discretion and allow for verification of interviewer performance.
Are the Hard to Cover Also Less Likely to Respond?
This document discusses how increasing survey coverage to include hard-to-reach populations may impact response rates. It presents simulation results exploring the relationship between coverage propensity, response propensity, and potential bias. The key findings are that increasing coverage can lower response rates, but total bias may still decrease if coverage and response propensities are strongly positively related. Absolute bias is more likely to decrease when variables influencing coverage and response are correlated.
Sampling Nomads: A New Technique for Remote, Hard-to-Reach, and Mobile Popula...
Livestock are an important component of rural livelihoods in developing countries, but data about this source of income and wealth are difficult to collect due to the nomadic and
seminomadic nature of many pastoralist populations. Most household surveys exclude those without permanent dwellings, leading to undercoverage. In this study, we explore the use of a random geographic cluster sample (RGCS) as an alternative to the household-based sample. In this design, points are randomly selected and all eligible respondents found inside circles drawn around the selected points are interviewed. This approach should eliminate undercoverage of mobile populations. We present results of an RGCS survey with a total sample size of 784 households to measure livestock ownership in the Afar region of Ethiopia in 2012. We explore the RGCS data quality relative to a recent household survey, and discuss the implementation challenges.
Use of Dependent Interviewing in Panel Surveys
Presentation at the European Central Bank, Nov 6, 2013
Panel surveys are used to measure change over time, but previous research has shown that simply asking the same questions of the same respondents in repeated interviews leads to overreporting of change. With proactive dependent interviewing, responses from the previous interview are preloaded into the questionnaire, and respondents are reminded of this information before being asked about their current situation. Existing research has shown that dependent interviewing techniques can reduce spurious change in wave-to-wave reports and thus improve the quality of estimates from longitudinal data. However, the literature provides little guidance on how such questions should be worded. After reminding a respondent of her report in the last wave (“Last time we interviewed you, you said that you were not employed”), we might ask: “Is that still the case?”; “Has that changed?”; “Is that still the case or has that changed?”; or we might ask the original question again: “What is your current labour market activity?”. In this study we present experimental evidence from a longitudinal telephone survey in Germany (n=1500) in which we experimentally manipulated the wording of the dependent questions and contrasted them with independent questions. We report differences in the responses collected by the different question types. Due to the concern that respondents may falsely confirm previous information as still applying, leading to underreporting of change in dependent interviewing, we also test hypotheses about how respondents answer such questions. In these tests, we focus on the roles played by personality, deliberate misreporting to shorten the interview, least effort strategies and cognitive ability in the response process to dependent questions. The paper provides evidence-based guidance on questionnaire design for panel surveys.

Coverage Nonresponse Trade-Off
Undercoverage plaques many frames - housing units are missed by listers or do not appear on the postal service list; persons with tenuous connections to households are not captured in rosters; persons hide their eligibility during screener interviews. The literature on undercoverage suggests several methods for improving the coverage of such frames, via a missed housing unit procedure, or detailed probes about household members, or disguising the target population in survey questions. However, each of these solutions introduces additional costs into the survey process. In this way, survey designers face a coverage-cost trade-off. In addition, there is increasing evidence that the cases found via these coverage-improvement measures are disproportionately nonresponders to the survey request. Thus there appears to be a coverage-nonresponse trade-off as well. Together these points raise the question of how much effort we should put into increasing coverage, when such efforts increase costs and nonresponse? This presentation will review empirical evidence for these trade-offs and search for clues to the mechanisms underlying the connection between nonresponse and undercoverage.
Uses of GIS in Survey Data Collection
The use of GIS tools in analyzing and conducting large-scale surveys has increased in the last several years and will likely continue to do so as the technologies become less expensive and easier to use. Starting with the Total Survey Error framework, this talk will discuss how GIS tools can help us measure and reduce different error sources, such coverage, nonresponse and measurement error. In addition, the tools can increase interviewer efficiency and reduce data collection costs. As we embrace these tools, survey researchers should maintain a healthy skepticism about their role. The talk will review the errors that GPS devices and GIS software can introduce; privacy and confidentiality concerns are also important.
Format Effect in Looping Questions
Previous research has demonstrated that the way in which filter questions are asked can affect the responses given: respondents tend to give fewer answers which trigger additional questions when the filters are interleafed with the follow up questions than when the filters are asked all in a group. We extend this research to looped questions in which respondents are asked the same battery of questions about every full-time job they have held, or every degree they have received. Such looping questions are common in surveys which collect biographical histories, but little prior work has explored the best way to ask such questions. Like filter questions, looping questions can be asked in two formats: one which asks first how many full time jobs a person has held, and another which first asks about one job and then asks if the respondent has held another job. We call these two formats “how many” and “go again.” In this paper, we investigate whether the format effect that we find in filter questions also applies to these looping questions. Based on the filter question research, we expected to find reduced reporting in the “go again” format. To investigate the phenomenon, we use data from a recent web survey in German (n=1,068, AAPOR RR1=10.3%). We do find the expected effect. Exploiting a link between survey responses and administrative data which is available for more than half the sample, we also show that respondents in the “how many” condition give more accurate responses on the number of events, and those in the “go again” condition tend to underreport. However, there may be other reasons to prefer the “go again” format, as it allows respondents to discuss one event at a time. Our results provide guidance to questionnaire designers, survey practitioners and analysts of survey data.

Global Situational Awareness of A.I. and where its headed
You can see the future first in San Francisco.
Over the past year, the talk of the town has shifted from $10 billion compute clusters to $100 billion clusters to trillion-dollar clusters. Every six months another zero is added to the boardroom plans. Behind the scenes, there’s a fierce scramble to secure every power contract still available for the rest of the decade, every voltage transformer that can possibly be procured. American big business is gearing up to pour trillions of dollars into a long-unseen mobilization of American industrial might. By the end of the decade, American electricity production will have grown tens of percent; from the shale fields of Pennsylvania to the solar farms of Nevada, hundreds of millions of GPUs will hum.
The AGI race has begun. We are building machines that can think and reason. By 2025/26, these machines will outpace college graduates. By the end of the decade, they will be smarter than you or I; we will have superintelligence, in the true sense of the word. Along the way, national security forces not seen in half a century will be un-leashed, and before long, The Project will be on. If we’re lucky, we’ll be in an all-out race with the CCP; if we’re unlucky, an all-out war.
Everyone is now talking about AI, but few have the faintest glimmer of what is about to hit them. Nvidia analysts still think 2024 might be close to the peak. Mainstream pundits are stuck on the wilful blindness of “it’s just predicting the next word”. They see only hype and business-as-usual; at most they entertain another internet-scale technological change.
Before long, the world will wake up. But right now, there are perhaps a few hundred people, most of them in San Francisco and the AI labs, that have situational awareness. Through whatever peculiar forces of fate, I have found myself amongst them. A few years ago, these people were derided as crazy—but they trusted the trendlines, which allowed them to correctly predict the AI advances of the past few years. Whether these people are also right about the next few years remains to be seen. But these are very smart people—the smartest people I have ever met—and they are the ones building this technology. Perhaps they will be an odd footnote in history, or perhaps they will go down in history like Szilard and Oppenheimer and Teller. If they are seeing the future even close to correctly, we are in for a wild ride.
Let me tell you what we see.

A.为什么留学生需要操作留信认证?
留信认证全称全国留学生信息服务网认证,隶属于北京中科院。①留信认证门槛条件更低,费用更美丽,并且包过,完单周期短,效率高②留信认证虽然不能去国企,但是一般的公司都没有问题,因为国内很多公司连基本的留学生学历认证都不了解。这对于留学生来说,这就比自己光拿一个证书更有说服力,因为留学学历可以在留信网站上进行查询!
B.为什么我们提供的毕业证成绩单具有使用价值？
查询留服认证是国内鉴别留学生海外学历的唯一途径但认证只是个体行为不是所有留学生都操作所以没有办理认证的留学生的学历在国内也是查询不到的他们也仅仅只有一张文凭。所以这时候我们提供的和学校颁发的一模一样的毕业证成绩单就有了使用价值。只硕大的蛇皮袋手里拎着长铁钩正站在门口朝黑色的屋内张望不好坏人小偷山娃一怔却也灵机一动立马仰起头双手拢在嘴边朝楼上大喊：“爸爸爸——有人找——那人一听朝山娃尴尬地笑笑悻悻地走了山娃立马“嘭的一声将铁门锁死心却咚咚地乱跳当山娃跟父亲说起这事时父亲很吃惊抚摸着山娃的头说还好醒得及时要不家早被人掏空了到时连电视也没得看啰不过父亲还是夸山娃能临危不乱随机应变有胆有谋山娃笑笑说那都是书上学的看童话和小说时多

Data Quality Concerns when Crowdsourcing Scientific Tasks
- 1. www.rti.orgRTI International is a registered trademark and a trade name of Research Triangle Institute. Data Quality Concerns in Scientific Tasks Y. Patrick Hsieh Stephanie Eckman Herschel Sanders Amanda Smith 1
- 2. Use of Crowdsourcing Crowdsourcing popular source of online workforce for scientific research – Classifying images – Transcribing audio files – Coding texts or social media content Fast & inexpensive Amazon Mechanical Turk (MTurk) 2 These tasks are a lot like surveys What about Data Quality?
- 3. Crowdsourcing vs Panels MTurk Paid per HIT Metrics available – # of tasks completed – % of tasks approved Strong norm: – Quality work → fair pay Online Panel • Paid per survey • Few quality metrics available 3 Do cultures & incentives lead to data quality differences? • In surveys? • In scientific tasks? Motivated misreporting
- 4. Web survey design Research Question 4 Format MTurk Online Panel Grouped Filter Filter Filter Follow Up Follow Up Follow Up Follow Up Filter Filter Filter Follow Up Follow Up Follow Up Follow Up Interleafed Filter Follow Up Follow Up Filter Filter Follow Up Follow Up Filter Follow Up Follow Up Filter Filter Follow Up Follow Up 2 tasks: • Survey • Image coding
- 5. 2 Sources of Participants MTurk – 80% prior approval rate – In US Online panel – Convenience sample in US – Balanced to Census 5 Survey: – 185/214 completed – 59% female – 39 years old – 48% >= bachelors Image coding: – 141/342 completed – 62% female – 50% bachelors or higher Survey: – 204/260 completed – 53% female – 48 years old – 37% >= bachelors Image coding: – 141/372 completed – 60% female – 45% bachelors or higher
- 6. Task A: Lifestyle Survey 4 filter sections – Clothing – Consumer goods – Leisure activity – Credit cards 30 minutes $4 incentive Order of sections randomized Filters in forward or backward order 6 Has anyone in this household purchased pants in the last 3 months? Yes How much did those pants cost? Does that price include tax? Did you buy them online? ………………. Has anyone in this household purchased shoes in the last 3 months? Yes?
- 7. Task B: Image Coding 7 Image coding task – 40 photos of Haiti buildings – $6 incentive – 50 minutes 4 elements – Beam – Column – Slab – Wall 2 filters – Can you see element? – Is it damaged?
- 8. Results: Motivated Misreporting in Survey Questions Expected format effect: more YES answers in GROUPED format 8
- 9. Results: Motivated Misreporting in Survey Questions DV: YES response Controlling for: – Demographics – Order * section – Format * MTurk / Panel 9
- 10. Results: Motivated Misreporting in Image Coding Effect in opposite direction: More YES in lnterleafed MTurkers answered YES more often 10 Average # of YES responses Element visibility Element damage Grouped 68.7 49.3 Interleaf 87.1 53.1 Average # of YES responses Element visibility Element damage Panel 65.4 47.1 MTurk 88.9 55.0
- 11. Take Aways (preliminary) Results not as expected – Survey: Format effect only in MTurk – MTurkers are similar to other survey respondents – Why no format effect in panel? No motivated misreporting in Panel? Or misreporting in both formats? – Image Coding: Format effect in opposite direction Some evidence MTurkers work harder than panelists – Survey: less item NR – Image Coding: longer time with training materials 11 ???
- 12. Discussion Data scientists are doing surveys to make training data We know a lot about survey data quality! – Measurement error – Nonresponse error – Coverage error 12 How do these affect • Training data? • Model predictions?
