Michael is concentrating on a work assignment at home when his son asks to watch a movie. michael tells him to wait 10 minutes; however, his son whines and complains so much that michael decides to put the movie in right then. this best illustrates the value of reinforcement.

Negative

Explanation:

Negative reinforcements refers to an answer or a response to a situation in which the negative behavior is supported or strengthened by removing a punishment or allowing an negative action. Here, Micheal told his son to wait 10 minutes but when the son whines and complains he decides to play the movie. This reinforces the negative behavior of Micheal's son and now he might do it again to get his wish. Hence, this is a negative reinforcement.

The correct answer is: Negative.

Explanation:

Negative reinforcement occurs when a response is reinforced by stopping or removing an aversive stimulus.

-In this particular case, Michael is trying to concentrate on an assignment he has from work and his son is whining and complaining. The whining and complaining of Michael's son can be understood as an aversive stimulus to Michael. To remove the aversive stimulus, Michael decides to put the movie in right then.

-This stops the sons' whines, thus the response of putting the movie gets reinforced. The next time Michael's son starts whining and complaining is more probable that Michael's behavior of putting the movie happens.

In conclusion, the correct answer is "Negative".
