I think the correct term to fill in the blank would be extrinsic. In other words, Dylan was looking for an extrinsic reward. It is a type of reward that is visible and tangible. It is physically given to someone for doing something. Usually it is in the form which has a monetary value like bonus, gold medal or salary increase. Example would be a medal. Receiving a medal when you won first place in a sport.. The extrinsic reward would be the medal. The opposite of this is called the intrinsic reward wherein it involves is internal motivation or internal satisfaction.
