Answer:

reinforcement; increase

Explanation:

B.F Skinner's operant conditioning explains how the rewards and punishments increase or decrease the likelihood of repetition of a particular behavior. According to this theory, learning occurs through an association between a behavior and its consequence. A reward given for a particular behavior would act as a reinforcement for that behavior in the future. As per the question when the kid Gets a candy for tantrums at the counter it will increase the chances of repetition of that behavior in the future.
