What is the benefit if a student takes a small reward after completing work?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Motivation increases
A small, healthy reward delivered after a desired behaviour can reinforce that behaviour and make the student more willing to repeat it. This is a form of positive reinforcement, although rewards should not replace understanding or internal interest. The other choices do not describe the usual effect of a suitable limited reward.
