Abstract

Microtasks have become increasingly popular in the digital labor market since they provide easy access to a crowd of people with varying skills and aptitudes to perform remote work tasks that even the most capable algorithmic systems are unable to complete in a timely and efficient fashion. However, despite the latest advancements in crowd-powered and contiguous interfaces, many crowd workers still face some accessibility issues, which ultimately deteriorate the quality of the work produced. To mitigate this problem, we restrict attention to the development of two different web-based minigames with a focus on cognitive personalization. We have conducted a pilot gamified experience, with six participants with autism, dyslexia, and attention deficit hyperactivity. The results suggest that a web-based mini-game can be incorporated in preliminary microtask-based crowdsourcing execution stages to achieve enhanced cognitive personalization in crowdsourcing settings.
