Reinforcement theory attempts to explain behavior change by suggesting that behavior with negative consequences tends to be repeated, whereas behavior with positive consequences tends not to be repeated.

   False

Explanation:  On the contrary, reinforcement theory is based on explanations for behavioural change by repeating behaviour with positive consequences while, of course, that with negative consequences is not repeated. This is accomplished by the desired shaping of behaviour, that is, shaping into certain direction, that is, in a positive direction by using a reward to reinforce positive behaviour and correcting unwanted behaviour by using a punishment for behaviour with negative consequences. This theory and its use is in fact a method for modifying behaviour.
