What is the principle of positive Reinforcement?

REINFORCEMENT (Increasing a particular behavior, pattern of learning): There are two types of reinforcement: 1. Positive reinforcement: when a [desired] act is reinforced by being rewarded. This means the act will be reinforced because the subject believes it's what is expected of them, but the act itself does not necessarily have to be interpreted as positive. 2. Negative reinforcement: an act will be reinforced due to removal of a negative stimuli. For example, a baby may cry when left in the dark. If the parent returns and turns on the light to comfort the baby, then the baby will learn that the act of crying will remove the unwanted condition of being left in the dark. This will lead to an increase in the baby crying. NOTE: this is different from punishment: The subject will decrease the behavior in order to avoid the punishment. For example, you may punish a child for hitting someone by sending them to their room. Doing this enough times will cause the child to stop hitting in order to avoid being sent to their room.
