Detailed explanation-1: -A child disobeys his parent, and the child gets punished by losing access to electronics. The desired effect of the punishment is that the child will not disobey again. Reinforcement, on the other hand, is a reward or a prize for doing something right.
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: -For example, spanking a child when he throws a tantrum is an example of positive punishment. Something is added to the mix (spanking) to discourage a bad behavior (throwing a tantrum). On the other hand, removing restrictions from a child when she follows the rules is an example of negative reinforcement.

Stopping alarms or other noises: That steady beeping that occurs in a car until the seatbelt is buckled is another example of negative reinforcement.
