A positive punishment procedure that involves providing vocal negative or corrective feedback following the occurrence of an undesirable behavior.
An involuntary behavior that is part of an organism’s genetic endowment, elicited without any prior learning, when an eliciting stimulus (US) produces a behavior (UR/REFLEX).
