Sara does not ask mr. smith any questions during class because the last time sara asked a question he ridiculed her. this is an example of which of the following? positive reinforcement negative reinforcement punishment classical conditioning

the answer is not negative reinforcement.

the answer to the question is punishment. or more specifically, positive punishment.

positive punishment occurs when a behavior is given a negative consequence for the individual doing the behavior.

sara no longer wants to ask questions (the behavior) because she is ridiculed by mr. smith (the punishment).

reinforcement is inaccurate because reinforcement always gives positive consequences for the individual doing the behavior, be it by introducing a pleasant consequence or removing an unpleasant one.

i am confused on the question.

the cellphone

is one of them another is raido
