Detailed explanation-1: -There are majorly four theories of punishment. These theories are the deterrent theory, retributive theory, preventive theory, and reformative theory.
Detailed explanation-2: -In a widespread definition, advocated by Azrin and Holz (1966), punishment is defined as a procedure in which (1) certain responses have consequences, (2) those responses decrease in frequency, and (3) the decrease in frequency occurs because of the response–consequence relation, and not for some other reason.
