    do you mean negative reinforcement?

    it’s like a grid right

    • positive = add
    • negative = remove
    • reinforcement = good thing
    • punishment = bad thing

    so things that we want:

    • positive reinforcement = add good thing
    • negative punishment= remove bad thing

    things we don’t want

    • negative reinforcement= remove good thing
    • positive punishment= add bad thing

      Folks should be prepared to deal with all of those. And even operate normally while only experiencing the negative varieties, without thinking the sky is falling on them.

        At the same time, people shouldn’t tolerate toxic environment.

      Close, but in operant conditioning, reinforcement encourages good behavior, and punishment discourages bad. So it’s:

      Positive reinforcement: add good thing in response to desirable behavior Negative reinforcement: remove bad thing in response to desirable behavior

      Positive punishment: add bad thing in response to undesirable behavior Negative punishment: remove good thing in response to undesirable behavior
