Answer:

retreatism

Explanation:

Sociologist Robert Merton determined Strain Theory that argues society can boost the deviant behavior of the person by pressuring people to conform to the social goals and ideas. When one is put under the strain to adjust to something they don’t feel comfortable in or accommodated, a person can react in different ways.

Merton’s theory suggested that they are five different ways people usually respond in these situations. <u>One of the systems is </u><u>retreatism</u><u>. </u><u>This means the individual largely rejects cultural norms, ideas, and goals, avoiding the ways to achieve them and adapt to them</u><u>.</u><u> They withdraw from society and abandon the institutionalized means of organization. </u><u>They do not find new goals nor institutions, just drop out of the existing ones.</u>

In operant conditioning, negative reinforcement is followed by a desirable stimulus. has hardly anything to do with "good" and "
aleksandrvk [35]
In operant conditioning, negative reinforcement "has hardly anything to do with "good" and "bad" behavior."

Negative reinforcement happens when a specific stilmulus is expelled after a specific behavior is displayed. The probability of the specific conduct happening again later on is expanded as a result of expelling/keeping away from the negative outcome. 
Negative reinforcement ought not be thought of as a discipline technique. With negative reinforcement , you are expanding a conduct, while with discipline, you are diminishing a conduct.
