punisher a stimulus change that immediately follows the occurrence of a behavior and reduces the future frequency of that type of behavior.
Possitive punishment (type1) when the presentation of a stimulus (or an increase in the intensity of an already present stimulus) immediately following a behavior results in the decrease in the frequency of the behavior. e.g. saying no, providing a strike, electric shock)
Negative punishment (type 2) the termination of an already present stimulus (or decrease in the intensity) immediately following a behavior results in the decrease of frequency. e.g. removal of tokens, or loss of a privilege.
