Detailed explanation-1: -Positive punishment means something is added to the situation to decrease the behavior. For example, if a student talks out of turn in class, the teacher could respond by adding detention after school.
Detailed explanation-2: -Positive punishment is when you add a consequence to unwanted behavior. You do this to make it less appealing. An example of positive punishment is adding more chores to the list when your child neglects their responsibilities.
Detailed explanation-3: -An example of positive punishment is scolding a student to get the student to stop texting in class. In this case, a stimulus (the reprimand) is added in order to decrease the behavior (texting in class). In negative punishment, you remove a pleasant stimulus to decrease a behavior.
