For example, if a red light (the SD) was associated with high-fives, then we would test whether the client responded during extinction sessions with or without a red light. In this assessment, if a high-five functions as a conditioned reinforcer, then during the test trials you would expect the organism to when it resulted in nothing versus the tests that resulted in only the red light.
