Negative Punishment

Detailed explanation-1: -Negative punishment is the opposite of positive punishment. It’s when you take something away from the child until the unwanted behavior changes. An easy example of negative punishment is taking away some sort of toy from the child if they are not staying on task or performing the preferred behavior.
Detailed explanation-2: -Losing privileges, being fined for violating the law, being grounded and losing access to the tablet are all common negative punishment examples.
Detailed explanation-3: -Have your kids ever cleaned their room, just to avoid your nagging? This is a perfect example of negative reinforcement. Negative reinforcement occurs when something unpleasant or uncomfortable is removed or taken away in order to increase the likelihood of the desired behavior.
Detailed explanation-4: -Type 2 punishment: is removal of a positive event after a behavior. Technically punishment is a decrease in the rate of a behavior. For example: If a child was spanked for running onto the road and stops running on to the road, then the spanking was punishment.
