Definitely. I think it's worth paying well in comparison with other gigs.

Two screener tricks that I recall:

One is getting in a little market research. Add a few questions that you've been wanting to know anyhow.

The other is including plausible-sounding answers that let you reject liars. For example, we had a grid section that asked, "How often do you use these sites?" One axis was frequency, "several times a day", "daily", a few times a week", etc. The other axis was the name of a bunch of sites, including popular things like Facebook and Amazon. But we'd also make sure to include more obscure things, and a couple of entirely fake ones.
