    Negative reinforcement aims to increase specific behaviors by removing negative consequences or stimuli. It is part of the operant conditioning theory of learning. ... Punishments are different because they involve either removing a reward or using an unpleasant outcome to discourage behaviors. Deciding to take an antacid before you indulge in a spicy meal is an example of negative reinforcement. You engage in an action in order to avoid a negative result. One of the best ways to remember negative reinforcement is to think of it as something being subtracted from the situation.
