This praise will most likely influence his behavior and therefore, is an example of positive reinforcement.
Explanation:
Behaviorism or behavioral psychology believes that all behaviors are acquired through interaction with the environment in the form of positive or negative reinforcements. A positive reinforcement has the purpose of rewarding and, therefore, encouraging a certain desired behavior. For instance, receiving a compliment from your boss after working hard on a project makes you feel proud of yourself.

He is, thus, being encouraged to maintain this behavior, since it led him to being admired and to receiving a gift. Therefore, this praise is an example of positive reinforcement.
