Negative reinforcement-

Reinforcement is the process of giving force on doing an activity or on not doing the activity. Skinner is a great psychologist and he gave the theory of Reinforcement in the process of learning.

Key Points  There are two types of Reinforcement given by Skinner-

• Positive Reinforcement- In the process of learning, if the teacher gives positive reinforcement to the students, students get confidence and support in running activity. By this Students are promoted to do the right activity in the process of learning.
• Negative Reinforcement- In the process of learning, if the teacher gives negative reinforcement to the students, students get demotivation to do the running activity. Of this students feel afraid and have low confidence in doing the wrong activity. Thus it decreases undesirable behavior.

In this way, we can say that Negative Reinforcement decreases undesirable behavior.
