Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Back-up reinforcers are more powerful reinforcers that are only available once a certain amount of tokens have been accumulated. This helps to maintain the value and effectiveness of the token system as the individual has to work towards earning the more significant rewards. Extrinsic and intrinsic reinforcers do not necessarily have a higher value than tokens, and primary reinforcers are basic needs such as food or water that are not usually used in a token system.
