Question

Scenario A. John, the office manager of Greenleaf Inc., believes that providing positive consequences for a job well done will increase the likelihood of good work performance in the future. John personally sends e-mails to his employees to commend their efforts when they perform well. Ivan, the CEO of Intrinsic Ideas Inc., takes his employees off probation early when they perform to his expectations. Fred, the sales manager of Kingston Corp., often shouts at his employees when they perform poorly. He also fails to appreciate employees when they perform well, which often results in poor performances. Fred has failed to appreciate his employees when they perform well, which has resulted in poor performances. This is an example of ________. arbitrationterminationextinctioneliminationnegative reinforcement

Answer 1

Answer:

Negative reinforcment.

Explanation:

In negative reinforcement, the act of exerting negative behavior to extinguish the other is used. In the case of the issue, when Fred shouts at his employees when they perform poorly, he seeks to reinforce through a negative stimulus (the scream) to remove negative behavior from poor performance. But the opposite also occurs when there is good performance of employees and there is no positive reinforcement or the possibility of applying negative stimulus, then there are no stimuli for the expected behavior.
