Answer to Question 1

When punishment is used, it results in an immediate decrease in the problem behavior. If the behavior that is decreased by punishment is aversive to the person using punishment, the use of punishment is negatively reinforced by the termination of the aversive behavior. As a result, the person is more likely to use punishment in the future in similar circumstances.
