Answer:

Reinforcement is a Consequence in which behavior is followed by some reinforcer that increases the likelihood that the behavior will occur again.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The consequence generally refer to the result that will occur in the result of a particular behavior in operant conditioning.
  • If the consequence increases the likelihood that the specific behavior will occur again then it is called as reinforcer.
  • If the consequence decreases the likelihood that the specific behavior will occur again then it is known as Punishment.
