Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Primary reinforcers are those that are inherently rewarding and satisfy a biological need, such as food, water, and warmth. Unconditioned reinforcers are similar, but they do not necessarily need to satisfy a biological need, while organic reinforcers do not necessarily need to be inherently rewarding. Secondary reinforcers are learned through association with primary or unconditioned reinforcers. Therefore, the best choice for this question is C) primary.
