Answer:Negative reinforcement

Explanation:

Negative reinforcement is based on operant conditioning theory. In negative reinforcement a positive behavior is enhanced by taking away a negative outcome or eliminating an aversive stimulus.

Aversive stimuli is everything that brings someone physcally or psychologically discomfort.

Negative reinforcement then means someone is able to avoid aversive stimuli prior to its occurrence. It is like taking prevention rather cure so you eliminate what ever can bring you a negative outcome before the negative outcome occurs.

Positive Reinforcement
