Answer 1

A reinforcer that allows a student to escape from an unpleasant situation is called a negative reinforcer.

             A reinforcer is a person who guides and influences the future behavior of an individual. The act of reinforcing the good or bad is called reinforcement.

            Negative reinforcement refers to the process by which the reinforcer takes away the student from any unpleasant situations and helps him escape. However, continuing this method might affect the behavior of the student, and he might take it for granted that anytime he does something unpleasant, he will be saved by someone. Due to this negative effect, this reinforcer is called a negative reinforcer.

            Positive reinforcement helps the student to understand the situation and handle it on his own. It teaches him the independent manner of behavior.
