Answer: Positive reinforcement; Positive punishment

Step-by-step explanation:

Behavioral modification is a psychological approach that is designed to regulate and change the undesirable behavior of a human being or animal. By utilizing positive and negative reinforcement by proving a stimulus.

The reinforcement means increasing the tendency of desired behavior and punishment means decreasing the tendency of the behavior.

The positive reinforcement means giving the subject a stimulus so that it can perform the desired action and the action is rewarded.

The positive punishment can be defined as the part of the behavioral modification which tends to decrease the rate of any kind of undesired behavior or action of the subject by enforcing the punishment.
