CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -An example of negative punishment in Hercules’s example would be for his owners to walk away and ignore him when he playbites. By doing so, they have taken a much desired resource (attention) away from him. With consistency, Hercules will soon figure out that whenever he bites playtime stops.

Detailed explanation-2: -One example of negative reinforcement is when the dog’s bottom is pushed to force the dog into a sit, and then released once the dog is in a sit. Assuming the behaviour of sitting goes up in frequency, the behaviour was negatively reinforced by the removal of the pressure on the dog’s rear end.

Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -Using negative punishment to correct your dog can keep you from unnecessarily hurting your pet. Removing something valuable is often more effective and works very fast when done correctly. It also keeps your relationship with your dog safe and healthy.
