Answer to Question 1

behavior that results in a consequence that weakens the behavior in the future

Answer to Question 2

Overcorrection and contingent exercise require the individual to engage in effortful behavior for an extended period of time contingent on the occurrence of the problem behavior. In overcorrection, the effortful behavior is a relevant behavior related to the problem behavior. In contingent exercise, the effortful behavior is unrelated to the problem behavior.
