Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A secondary reinforcer is an event or object that becomes reinforcing to an individual after being associated with a primary or another secondary reinforcer. Unlike primary reinforcers, which are inherently reinforcing (e.g., food, water), secondary reinforcers (e.g., money, praise) gain their reinforcing properties through their association with primary reinforcers or other established secondary reinforcers.
