Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Positive reinforcement provides a favorable consequence (such as a reward) that encourages repetition of a behavior. Power motivation and affiliation motivation refer to different types of individual motivations, unrelated to reinforcement. Negative reinforcement also encourages repetition of behavior, but by removing an unfavorable consequence rather than providing a favorable one.
