Martha leaves her used tea bags on the kitchen counter top, which leaves stains. To prevent ruining the counter top, she tries to remember to put her tea bags in the garbage instead. What reinforcement therapy is Martha using?

Negative Reinforcement

Explanation:

The type of reinforcement therapy that Martha is using is known as Negative Reinforcement. This is the case since Martha is performing the action of putting her tea bags in the garbage in order to take away a negative effect from occurring. This negative effect would be ruining the counter-top which would occur if she does not throw the tea bags in the garbage. This is known in psychology as a negative reinforcement since the negative possible outcome is reinforcing an individual to perform a specific action.

if your boyfriend is cheating on you, my best advice to you is to dump him, he's only going to drag you down. and if you do, don't fret there's plenty better that know how to treat a person right. i mean honestly, the whole point of a romantic relationship is love, and if you love someone you aren't going to cheat on them. i do believe in second chances, but why would he cheat in the first place? i personally feel that if someone cheats, they ruin any chance they wanted/had with you. i wish you the best of luck with this, hang in there.

what are the choices?
