Natural reinforcement refers to reinforcement that occurs as a natural consequence of a behavior, such as the taste of food being reinforcing because it satisfies hunger and provides energy. This is in contrast to arbitrary reinforcement, which is an artificial reward that has been assigned a reinforcing value, and indirect acting reinforcement, which involves a delay between the behavior and the reinforcement. The Premack principle is a related concept that suggests that a person is more likely to perform a less desirable behavior if it leads to a more desirable behavior as a consequence.
