Answer 1

Punishment is behavioral procedure explains why Harvey doesn't load snowballs with rocks any more.

Punishment is a behavioral process in which a reaction results in the presentation of an unpleasant consequence or the removal of a pleasurable stimulus, reducing the likelihood that the response will occur again in the future under identical conditions. The punisher (i.e., aversive stimulus) must be presented in conjunction with the response, must be presented right after the response, must be used sparingly, and must be more intense than the stimulus that would otherwise be produced by the response in order for this process to be most effective. Punishment comes in two flavors: positive and negative, much like reinforcement. Positive punishment is the process of adding a stimulus to the environment in exchange for an action, which lowers the likelihood that the action will be taken again in the future.
