If a behavior tends to increase after a consequence occurs, that consequence is most likely used as
a.
reinforcement
b.
punishment
c.
extinction
d.
aversive stimuli

The right answer is reinforcement.

In psychology, reinforcement is a process that increases the probability of repetition of a behavior. Theories of reinforcement learning are studied by behavioral psychology and are the subject of many applications aimed at modifying animal and human behavior.

Positive reinforcement consists in giving the subject a pleasant stimulus, it is an event which increases the frequency of appearance of a behavior thanks to the appearance of a pleasant stimulus.

Negative reinforcement consists of suppressing a stimulus. It is an event that increases the frequency of appearance of a behavior by withdrawing or stopping a stimulus.

Primary enhancers are stimuli that increase the likelihood of an answer and, like food, fill a biological need.

Secondary reinforcers are stimuli that increase the likelihood of an answer and that, like money and material goods, have no intrinsic biological value.
