Punishment involves adding an undesirable consequence to decrease the likelihood of a behavior occurring again, whereas negative reinforcement involves removing an aversive stimulus to increase the likelihood of a behavior being repeated. Punishment aims to decrease behavior, while negative reinforcement aims to increase behavior. Negative reinforcement strengthens a behavior by removing something unpleasant, while punishment weakens a behavior by adding something unpleasant.
Children may laugh when they are being scolded as a defense mechanism to diffuse tension in a stressful situation. It could also be a way for them to test boundaries and see how you will react. Laughing can also be a way for them to release nervous energy or discomfort when feeling overwhelmed.
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.
Yes, hanging typically carries a negative connotation as it is often associated with punishment, executions, or suicide.
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.
