Answer:

Positive and negative reinforcement and punishment is called Operant Conditioning. Operant Conditioning is a form of learning in which behavior is modified depending on its consequences. Positive reinforcement is used to increase the likelihood of a behavior occurring, while negative reinforcement is used to reduce the likelihood of a behavior occurring. Punishment, on the other hand, is used to reduce the likelihood of a behavior occurring by introducing an unpleasant consequence.
