Answer to Question 2

Negative reinforcement is the contingent removal of an aversive stimulus immediately following a response
that increases the future rate or probability of the response. Negative reinforcement is effective because the
student performs the behavior to escape or avoid and thereby terminate the aversive stimulus.
