CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -1. A classic example of negative reinforcement is the beeping noise your car makes when you haven’t buckled your seat belt. The car makes this beeping noise in order to increase the likelihood of you buckling your seatbelt (so, buckling your seatbelt is the desired behavior).

Detailed explanation-2: -Examples of Negative Reinforcement 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: -In negative reinforcement you are taking away an undesirable stimulus in order to increase the frequency of a certain behavior (e.g., buckling your seat belt stops the annoying beeping sound in your car and increases the likelihood that you will wear your seatbelt).

Detailed explanation-4: -Negative reinforcement is the type of reinforcement that occurs when an unpleasant stimuli is removed upon performing a behavior. Reinforcement always increases a behavior. In this case, the unpleasant stimulus is the car beeping and the behavior is buckling the seat belt.

Detailed explanation-5: -Negative reinforcement involves the relief of something undesirable being removed. An example would be when you get into your car and it starts beeping before you put on your seatbelt. The beeping is undesirable and engaging in the behaviour of putting on your seatbelt removes the beep.
