Answer: negative reinforcement by escape

Explanation: Negative reinforcement occurs when a disliked or aversive stimulus is prevented or altered or stopped. The scenario above describes negative reinforcement by escape which means that an aversive, unwanted or disliked event is removed after it has occurred. Escape is a negative reinforcement and occurs when the aversive stimulus has occurred before being removed. In the context above, Tom was only able to prevent his loss after it has occurred, meaning an escape negative reinforcement.

How had democracies fallen short of people expectation explain
bazaltina [42]

There are times when democracy does not meet the expectations of the people.  Sadly there are times when it fails the people who believe in it.  This is when corrupt officials abuse their position in government and implement policies that limit democracy and the rights of the people. When services intended for the people are not available that is another example.  The worst instance is when there is no justice in the system as the guilty goes free and the innocent gets blamed.
