Answer to Question 1

Positive reinforcement is given when desired behavior is performed. An employee is praised for cleaning up the work station. Negative reinforcement is the removal of a negative consequence when desired behavior is performed. A manager complains about a messy work station and stops when the worker cleans it up. Extinction occurs with the removal of positive consequences when undesired behavior is performed. A manager refrains from laughing at a subordinate's disruptive jokes when the two have important matters to discuss. Punishment is the negative consequence given when undesired behavior is performed. A manager criticizes the subordinate for telling disruptive jokes when the two have important matters to discuss.

Answer to Question 2

C
