In behavioral terms, drugs like aspirin are considered negative reinforcers because they?
mr Goodwill [35]

In behavioural terms, drugs like aspirin are considered negative reinforcers because they stop a person from feeling pain.

Negative reinforcement is a method that can be used to help teach specific behaviours. With negative reinforcement, something uncomfortable or otherwise unpleasant is taken away in response to a stimulus. Over time, the target behaviour should increase with the expectation that the unpleasant thing will be taken away.

For negative reinforcement to work, whatever is taken away must be taken away immediately after the behaviour in question. The end result is to get whatever behaviour is happening to continue and even increase.

Example :

A person hears a loud alarm. They push the STOP button on the alarm to make the noise stop. Now whenever the alarm goes off, they push the STOP button as quickly as they can.

  • Before behaviour: Loud alarm
  • Behaviour: Person turns alarm off
  • After behaviour: No more annoying sound
  • Future behaviour: Person pushes STOP every morning to quiet alarm
