The way I used it was, she wanted to INCREASE Chris doing his homework, so she REMOVED TV to do it.
If you see it as, she wanted to DECREASE his -not- doing his homework, thus it's punishment, you're still right! I just didn't want to use the double negative! ;)
It's also said as "towards or away". Some learners respond to getting praise and others respond to doing thing as to avoid punishment. There are students in my class who will not respond to extrinsic rewards positive, only respond to aversion of punishment.
Negative Reinforcement is removing a punishment or a stimulus that causes punishment or discomfort. Eg: u get shocked every time u don't press a button. So u learn to push it, so u don't get shocked.
It's basically doing something to avoid punishment.
@geeuphorsey they aren't the same thing. negative reinforcement means reinforcing a behaviour by taking something aversive away, eg if there is a loud painful noise and you turn down the volume by pressing a button, that reinforces the behaviour of pressing the button. Negative punishment is trying to stop a behaviour by taking something nice away, eg if a child starts screaming you take her lollipop away. positive punishment is introducing an aversion, such as a smack.
This is a great idea but the second one is incorrect, it is negative PUNISHMENT: Something rewarding (TV) was taken away to reduce the occurrence of a behavior (getting bad grades).
Negative reinforcement is when an aversive is applied and then eliminated to increase the occurrence of a behavior. To apply it to this scenario, Lois would scold Chris (adding an aversive) until he starts to study and then stop scolding him to increase the occurance of him studying (to avoid her scolding.)
@metallicstucco nope, it would be negative punishment. you take away something good (e.g. the ability to understand) to decrease the behaviour (of watching more videos here)
@metallicstucco Not really, unless you're trying to tell me you did that wrong on purpose... which I don't think would be very good sarkasm... too subtle, since most people don't get the concept. All I'm saying is that imho it would have been funnier using the correct aspect of Operant Conditioning.
@metallicstucco I'm sorry that you think I was lecturing you. I thought we were having a discussion... obviously not. And sorry that I don't spell-check every f*ing word I use - I think for being German I'm doing quite OK spelling wise. Since you aren't perceiving this as a discussion, I'm going to "stop lecturing" now and won't respond. I will however continue to read any answers you post here.
well, no. to initially clarify the functions of reinforcement and punishment in the operant model, i like to replace the word "reinforcement" with the words "to make me happy" or "to reward my behavior and make it more likely to occur again". so, that being said, a good example of negative reinforcement would have been for lois to set up a program that rewards her child for good grades by taking away a home chore he sees as noxious. for example, if you bring home a 'b' paper or better in each
This video is incorrect. You have positive reinforcement correct. Negative Reinforcement however, is when you remove something that is unwanted in order to increase behavior. Such as, you were good today, so your parents give you fewer chores.
@smawshot ... that would have been negative reinforcement MAYBE I should rather say. If he was to repeat doing his homework, then it would have been reinforcement. Until then, it is a contingency of reinforcement ..... technically speaking.
Punishment, weakens the behavior (getting bad grades), because a negative condition (being sent to your room for example) is introduced or experienced as a consequence of the behavior.
Negative Reinforcement strengthens a behavior because a negative condition is stopped or avoided as a consequence of the behavior. Like taking an aspirin to take away an headache .
In negative reinforcement, a painful or unpleasant stimulus is removed. Examples of this would be taking a pain pill to take away pain or removing a rock from your shoe allowing you to walk without pain. Sending a child to his room for getting bad grades is an example of punishment, not negative reinforcement.
No. This is wrong. The example of neg reinf is actually punishment. Neg Reinf is when an aversive (undesirable) stimulus is removed after a behavior. The behavior then becomes more common. It's like a rat pushing a bar and having an electric shock removed. It's like when the teacher is going to call on someone in class so you look down and don't get called on.
@skinnydogkew In the example with Lois she takes away tv privlages so that he will increase the time he spends doing homework. She doesnt tell him to stop being lazy she tells him to go do homework.
@duhdumbblonde1 taking away TV privelages in order to stimulate behavior would be more accurately defined as an operant. As she is attempting to encourage a certain behavior. Or it may also be viewed in terms of a punishment for displaying the behavior of skipping his homework (the behavior pattern she wishes to remove).
This is wrong, the second example with Lois is negative punishment, not negative reinforcement. Taking away a pleasurable or comforting stimulus in order to decrease the intensity and/or frequency of a behaviour. Eg: being lazy in class.
Wow, look at all the comments!
First, review -
"positive" == addition of something;
"negative" == removal of something;
"reinforcement" == to increase behaviour;
"punishment" == to decrease behaviour.
The way I used it was, she wanted to INCREASE Chris doing his homework, so she REMOVED TV to do it.

TheClayBrigance 4 months ago 2
@urdumbfoo Yes, the 2nd one is a punishment. The behavior that Lois wanted to reduce was skipping homework, losing TV being the adverse contingency.
Now if he did the homework right away, and Lois removed herself from blocking the TV set, that would have been negative reinforcement.

No, she's still taking away the appetitive stimulus (TV) from Chris. This example is more like response cost.
Negative reinforcement entails the removal of a undesirable stimulus to increase a behaviour.
