Detailed explanation-1: -In negative reinforcement, an undesirable stimulus is removed to increase a behavior. For example, car manufacturers use the principles of negative reinforcement in their seatbelt systems, which go “beep, beep, beep” until you fasten your seatbelt.

Detailed explanation-2: -Giving a pass to the car behind to avoid its honking. Getting up from the bed to avoid the noisy alarm. Taking an antacid before having a spicy meal. Applying sunscreen before heading to the beach to avoid getting sunburned.

Detailed explanation-3: -Skinner, an undesirable stimulus is removed to increase a behavior. If an organism is exposed to an aversive situation, and the termination of that situation is made contingent upon some response, then we say that the organism is being negatively reinforced.

Detailed explanation-4: -A negative reinforcer is a stimulus that when removed after a response, will increase the frequency or likelihood of that response.
