96. Negative reinforcement (penalty for wrongdoing)

Toilet Training Your First Puppy in Singapore

What is negative reinforcement in puppy training? Using a roll of newspaper to spank the puppy. Making him smell the urine or shit. Measures that cause pain and discomfort.

What about negative reinforcement for people? Singapore is a "fine" city. Penalties can be as high as $900 for speeding at 120 kmph for the first-time offender. 12 demerit points are also given. Is this negative reinforcement?




How about the electronic toll gate to reduce traffic congestion in downtown and now, all over the country? The ERP (Electronic Road Pricing) policy. Is it negative reinforcement in motorist education? Fine imposed if you enter the Restricted Zone without paying.
