Operant conditioning occurs when a behavior is strengthened or weakened through the consequences that follow it. Positive reinforcement adds a desirable stimulus to increase the likelihood of a behavior, while negative reinforcement removes an undesirable stimulus to do the same. Punishment decreases the chances of a behavior by applying an aversive consequence, while extinction involves removing the reinforcement that previously maintained a behavior.
