Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Tangible incentives are benefits that are given only to group members, such as discounts, exclusive access to events, or special services. By offering these benefits, interest groups can motivate individuals to join and actively participate, thereby decreasing the free rider problem where individuals benefit without contributing to the group's efforts. Policies (A) are the end goal of interest groups, not a specific incentive. Campaign contributions (C) and bonuses (D) are not tangible benefits and are not given to group members.
