Yes, it's negative reinforcement. By not wanting a behavior to happen again the child is being punished, positive reinforcement would be showing the child what they should do and then rewarding them when they do that. That will deter away from unwanted behavior.
Different in that positive reinforcement increases a behavior and negative punishment decreases a behavior
The 2 positive integers don't affect the sign. Every time you multiply by a negative number, the sign changes, so you have negative, positive, negative, positive... Since the number of negative numbers is odd, the end result is negative.The 2 positive integers don't affect the sign.

Multiply the numbers ignoring the signs and then add a negative sign.
-15 x -3 / -9 = (-15 x -3 ) / -9 = 45 / -9 = -5
- n = 7multiply through by, - 1- 1(- n = 7)a negative times a negative is positive ( and, of course, a negative time a positive is negative )n = - 7======check- (- 7) = 7( negative times negative = positive )7 = 7----------checks

removing something pleasant
Punishment is not a reinforcer. there is Negative Punishment and Positive Punishment, and also Negative Reinforcement and Positive Reinforcement.*Negative Punishment is a consequence withdrawn following a response that causes a behavior to occur with less frequency.*Negative Reinforcement is a consequence withdrawn following a response that causes a behavior to occur with greater frequency.*Positive Punishment is a consequence delivered following a response that causes a behavior to occur with less frequency.*Positive Reinforcement is a consequence delivered following a response that causes a behavior to occur with greater frequency.
Positive punishment involves adding an aversive stimulus to decrease the likelihood of a behavior occurring again. Negative punishment involves removing a desirable stimulus to decrease the likelihood of a behavior occurring again. Essentially, positive punishment adds something unpleasant while negative punishment takes away something valued.
positive and negative reinforcement and punishment
Punishment is a moral concept; someone has done something wrong and therefore deserves to suffer a punishment. Negative reinforcement is not a moral concept but a pragmatic concept; we do not want someone to do something, therefore we give them a reason not to do it, in the form of some undesired consequence. Of course, the actual process of either punishment or negative reinforcement could turn out to be exactly the same. Only the motive is different.
People very often confuse negative reinforcement with punishment
The question suggests that negative punishment is the same as withdrawing positive reinforcement. This is not exactly true. A "desirable consequence" is what behaviorists call an appetitive stimulus: one that, when made contingent on a target behavior, serves to increase the likelihood of that behavior happening again. That is the main idea behind positive reinforcement. Negative punishment, on the other hand, is meant to decrease the likelihood of the target behavior. It is called "negative" because it is withdrawing an appetitive stimulus which is pre-existing. In other words, the withdrawal of the stimulus is contingent on the target behavior; negative punishment is not a withdrawal of the contingency itself.
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.
Max's punishment is his dad going to jail for a second time and this time for life.
Positive reinforcement, negative reinforcement, punishment, or extinction.
Mercy is withholding punishment or some other negative consequence from someone who deserves the punishment or negative consequence. In contrast, grace is offering some benefitto someone who does not deserve it.
