a) Negative punishment for child and positivereinforcement for parentsb)Positive reinforcement for child and negative reinforcement for parentsc) Negative reinforcement for child andpositive reinforcement for parentsd) None of the above
explaination:
The child is reinforced for crying with attention, which is a rewarding stimulus and thus it is likely to increase the child’s crying behavior and the cessation of cryingis negative reinforcement for the parents because it is the removal of an aversive stimulus, the sound of crying, and as such is likely to increase the parents comforting behavior.
