What is the difference between a positive sanction and a negative sanction? Which is more common?
timofeeve [1]

A kind of behavior by a person's action is called positive sanction and punishments in an action considered as negative sanction.

<u>Explanation: </u>

The difference between positive sanction and negative sanction is as follows.

Positive sanction:

  • An action that results in a 'particular kind of behavior' is known to be a positive sanction.

Negative sanction:

  • An action of punishment or threat of 'punishment is used as a means to enforce conformity' is known to be a negative sanction.

The common point:

  • Neither positive nor negative sanction works if people by themselves are not sure whether they should be rewarded or punished for a particular behavior. So, there is no common line between Negative and Positive sanction.
