Detailed explanation-1: -In operant conditioning, there are two primary methods of conditioning behavior: positive reinforcement and negative reinforcement. Positive reinforcement is aimed at increasing a particular behavior, while negative reinforcement is designed to decrease a behavior.
Detailed explanation-2: -Spontaneous recovery is incomplete The strength of the recovered learning is usually smaller than the original learning. If extinction is applied again, the subsequent recovery will become weaker and weaker.
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.
