12A [blank_start]token economy system[blank_end] involves tokens being rewarded for good behaviours. These tokens can then be exchanged for [blank_start]rewards[blank_end] such as sweets and cigarettes. Token economy systems are often used in [blank_start]prisons[blank_end] in order to [blank_start]positively reinforce[blank_end] good behaviour among inmates. Alternatively, a [blank_start]punishment[blank_end] within the prison system would be solitary confinement. In order to [blank_start]avoid[blank_end] solitary confinement, prisons must behave well, for example, not behaving violently towards other inmates and guards. This is a form of [blank_start]negative reinforcement[blank_end] as good behaviour helps them avoid punishments.
