Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Positive reinforcers are stimuli that increase the frequency or probability of a behavior when they are presented immediately following that behavior. They often take the form of some type of reward, such as food, praise, or money. Conditioners are substances used to improve the quality or appearance of something. Discriminators are stimuli that signal the availability of reinforcement or punishment. Shapers are used to gradually shape a behavior to the desired final shape. Nonpunishers do not decrease the likelihood of a behavior.
