What is difference between negative reinforcement and punishment in psychology?
Punishment is a moral concept; someone has done something wrong and therefore deserves to suffer a punishment. Negative reinforcement is not a moral concept but a pragmatic concept; we do not want someone to do something, therefore we give them a reason not to do it, in the form of some undesired consequence. Of course, the actual process of either punishment or negative reinforcement could turn out to be exactly the same. Only the motive is different.

Does negative punishment involve withdrawing a desirable consequence of a certain behavior?
The question suggests that negative punishment is the same as withdrawing positive reinforcement. This is not exactly true. A "desirable consequence" is what behaviorists call an appetitive stimulus: one that, when made contingent on a target behavior, serves to increase the likelihood of that behavior happening again. That is the main idea behind positive reinforcement. Negative punishment, on the other hand, is meant to decrease the likelihood of the target behavior. It is called "negative" because it is withdrawing an appetitive stimulus which is pre-existing. In other words, the withdrawal of the stimulus is contingent on the target behavior; negative punishment is not a withdrawal of the contingency itself.

Why do psychologists prefer negative reinforcement to punishment as a way to shape behavior?
Psychologists prefer negative reinforcement to punishment because it involves removing an aversive stimulus when desired behavior is displayed, which can be more effective in modifying behavior in the long term. Punishment, on the other hand, can lead to fear, anxiety, and potential negative emotional consequences, making it less effective and potentially harmful in the long run. Additionally, negative reinforcement focuses on reinforcing desired behavior, while punishment focuses on suppressing unwanted behavior.
Psychologists prefer negative reinforcement to punishment as a way to shape?
Negative reinforcement encourages behaviors to continue with the incentive of taking away something bad. Punishment encourages bad behaviors to stop through fear of consequence. Psychologists recommend using negative reinforcement over punishment because it encourages desirable behaviors instead of removing undesirable behaviors without putting a desirable alternative in its place, and because it is based on a positive hope for reward, rather than fear of consequence.
