Answer:
Jason is busy with a work project that he brought home. His son wants him to put a movie in the DVD player. Jason tells him to wait 10 minutes; however, his son whines and complains so much that Jason decides to put the movie in right away. If Jason's son stops complaining, Jason's behavior of starting the movie immediately may be maintained by negative reinforcement.
Step-by-step explanation:
Negative reinforcement is defined as an aversive stimulus where a contingent prevention is applied to a behavior, so that the positive reinforcement that is applied to increase or maintain it is terminated or prevented, that is, it consists of eliminating some unpleasant stimulus after it a behavior happens. Negative reinforcement seeks to modify behavior by eliminating a consequence that the individual considers negative.
