How are positive and negative reinforcement similar and how are they different?

Positive reinforcement is when you reward someone (person, child, pet, etc.) when they do what you want them to, and you ignore them when they do what you don't want them to do. Negative reinforcement, I believe, is when you punish someone for doing what you don't want them to do. As far as their effectiveness, it seems that a combination of both is good. Positive reinforcement is essential, and negative reinforcement helps to round it out. It is, however, important to be careful with negative reinforcement because if you put too much attention on someone while trying to enact the punishment (IE, time out), then, subconsciously, they may enjoy even the negative attention and thus you will have a counterproductive effect.


What are the differences between punishment and negative reinforcement?

Punishment involves adding an undesirable consequence to decrease the likelihood of a behavior occurring again, whereas negative reinforcement involves removing an aversive stimulus to increase the likelihood of a behavior being repeated. Punishment aims to decrease behavior, while negative reinforcement aims to increase behavior. Negative reinforcement strengthens a behavior by removing something unpleasant, while punishment weakens a behavior by adding something unpleasant.


How can negative reinforcement be positive?

Negative reinforcement refers to the removal of a negative stimulus to increase the likelihood of a desired behavior. In this context, "negative" does not refer to something bad but rather the removal of something unwanted. So, negative reinforcement can be positive because it encourages the individual to engage in a behavior that leads to the removal of an aversive stimulus, ultimately resulting in a positive outcome.


Different methods of shaping behavior?

Some methods of shaping behavior include positive reinforcement, negative reinforcement, punishment, and extinction. Positive reinforcement involves rewarding desired behavior to increase its occurrence. Negative reinforcement involves removing an aversive stimulus to increase the likelihood of a behavior being repeated. Punishment involves applying an aversive consequence to decrease an undesired behavior. Extinction involves withholding reinforcement to diminish a behavior.


What are the Differences between positive and negative reinforcement and how they link to motivation?

Positive reinforcement is basically rewarding good behavior. Like giving candy for doing chores. Negative reinforcement is the opposite, giving something bad, scolding usually, upon doing something bad. Negative reinforcement acts as a deterrent to bad behavior. These are linked to motivation in the way that you can motivate a child to do something with the idea of a reward afterwards, or the fear of something bad if they don't do it, or do something wrong.

What is the difference between reinforcement and feedback?

Feedback and reinforcement are important concepts in learning. Feedback involves to provide information about their responses to learners, whereas reinforcement is a tendency of the learner to make a specific response again. Feedback can be positive, negative or neutral; reinforcement is either positive (increases the response) or negative (decreases the response). Feedback is almost always considered external while reinforcement can be external or instrinsic (i.e., generated by the individual).


What increases the likelihood that a behavior will occur again by removing an unpleasant stimulus?

You are describing 'negative reinforcement'. People very often confuse negative reinforcement with punishment. Punishment is clearly not a reinforcer in the context of operant conditioning. Negative reinforcement is. The frequency of a behavior goes up when that behavior results in the removal of a noxious stimulus. It would work for me.
