Positive punishment

Positive punishment works by presenting an aversive consequence after an undesired behavior is exhibited, making the behavior less likely to happen in the future.

EX: A child touches a hot stove (behavior) and feels pain (aversive stimulus).

Positive reinforcement

Positive reinforcement works by presenting a motivating/reinforcing stimulus to the person after the desired behavior is exhibited, making the behavior more likely to happen in the future.

EX: The little boy receives $5.00 (reinforcing stimulus) for every A he earns on his report card (behavior).

Negative punishment

Negative punishment happens when a certain reinforcing stimulus is removed after a particular undesired behavior is exhibited, resulting in the behavior happening less often in the future.

EX: A child fights with her brother (behavior) and has her favorite toy taken away (reinforcing stimulus removed).

Negative reinforcement

Negative reinforcement occurs when a certain stimulus (usually an aversive stimulus) is removed after a particular behavior is exhibited. The likelihood of the particular behavior occurring again in the future is increased because of removing/avoiding the negative consequence.

EX: Natalie can get up from the dinner table (aversive stimulus) when she eats 2 bites of her broccoli (behavior).

What is the relationship between negative reinforcement and punishment?

Negative reinforcement increases the target behavior by taking away something aversive. Negative punishment decreases the target behavior by taking away something preferred. In the following example, a student's “target behavior” is not paying attention to her teacher, or off-task behavior.

What's the difference between negative reinforcement and punishment quizlet?

What is the difference between negative reinforcement and punishment? With negative reinforcement, you are increasing a behavior, whereas with punishment, you are decreasing a behavior.

What is the relationship between negative reinforcement?

Negative reinforcement is a method that can be used to help teach specific behaviors. With negative reinforcement, something uncomfortable or otherwise unpleasant is taken away in response to a stimulus. Over time, the target behavior should increase with the expectation that the unpleasant thing will be taken away.

Does punishment and negative reinforcement have the same effect?

Many people confuse negative reinforcement with punishment in operant conditioning, but they are two very different mechanisms. Remember that reinforcement, even when it is negative, always increases a behavior. In contrast, punishment always decreases a behavior.
