Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A conditioned reinforcer is a stimulus that initially has no reinforcement value but gains reinforcement value by being paired with a primary reinforcer. Money is a classic example of a conditioned reinforcer, as it has no inherent value but gains value by being paired with other reinforcers such as food, water, or goods and services. A, B, and C are all primary reinforcers that do not require pairing with other stimuli to have reinforcement value.
