Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Reinforcement is a term used in behavioral psychology to refer to the consequences that follow a behavior and increase the likelihood of that behavior being repeated in the future. Reinforcement can be positive (e.g. rewards such as praise, money, or gifts) or negative (e.g. punishment such as criticism, fines, or time-out) in value. Therefore, reinforcement includes both rewards and punishments.
