Answer: Positive reinforcement

Step-by-step explanation:

Reinforcement simply means increasing a behavior. Reinforcement can either be positive or negative. All reinforcers either positive or negative increase likely occurrence of a behavioral response.

Positive reinforcement is a process which strengthens the likelihood of particular response by adding stimulus after the performance of the behavior. Positive reinforcement can be used to teach an individual or animal new behavior.
