What type of Motivation from the Reinforcement Theory of Motivation is represented in this example?A teacher deducts points from a student's grade for consistently arriving late to class, which discourages the student from continuing to be tardy. Bbl6epuTe oạMH OTBeT: a. unexpected gift b. positive punishment c. punishment d. negative feedback

The correct answer is b. positive punishment.<br /><br />In the given example, the teacher deducts points from the student's grade for consistently arriving late to class. This action is intended to discourage the student from continuing to be tardy. By taking away points, the teacher is adding an unpleasant consequence (the deduction of points) to the student's behavior (arriving late). This is an example of positive punishment, where a favorable stimulus (points) is removed to decrease the likelihood of a behavior (tardiness) occurring in the future.
