In psychology, "Positive" means ADDING a stimulus (+), and "Negative" means REMOVING a stimulus (−). "Reinforcement" ALWAYS increases behavior.
- 1. Ask first: Did the behavior INCREASE (Reinforcement) or DECREASE (Punishment)?
- 2. Ask second: Was something ADDED (Positive +) or REMOVED (Negative −)?
- 3. Example: Buckling seatbelt stops annoying beep → Removed beep (−) + More buckling (↑) = Negative Reinforcement
