Question

Answer 1

The above is an example of negative reinforcement. It is a term depicted by B. F. Skinner in his hypothesis of operant molding. In negative fortification, a reaction or conduct is reinforced by halting, expelling or dodging a negative result or aversive jolt. 

It happens when a specific boost is evacuated after a specific conduct is displayed. The probability of the specific conduct happening again, later on, is expanded on account of evacuating/maintaining a strategic distance from the negative outcome.
