Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Behaviors fueled by drives are typically maintained through negative reinforcement. Negative reinforcement refers to the removal or avoidance of an unpleasant stimuli that increases the likelihood of a behavior being repeated or continued. For example, if a person eats when they are hungry, the hunger sensation is the drive that fuels the behavior. Eating removes the unpleasant sensation of hunger, thus reinforcing the behavior.
