Answer: Jackson correctly says that both ADD A STIMULUS.

Explanation:

According to operant conditioning, positive and negative do not necessarily refers to something good and something bad , but positive means something is added and negative means something is subtracted. Reinforcement refers to improving a behavior whilst punishment means discouraging an undesired behavior.

Positive reinforcement something desirable is added with aim of enhancing a particular desired behavior whilst in positive punishment something undesirable is added with an aim of discouraging an undesired behavior.

For an example you do your chores effectively all the month and your mom rewards you with a new phone , this reward is a positive reinforcement.

A teacher add more homework for you in class because you have been misbehaving throughout the lesson, this extra homework is an added stimulus that will help discourage you from misbehaving in the future.
