Operant conditioning is using consequences as a way to increase/decrease a targeted behavior. This can be done by adding or taking away something, as a way to punish or reward the behavior- a reinforcement.
Say, for example, a child does not want to clean their room, & chooses to spend their time playing with toys instead. A parent, who wants to the child to clean their room instead, might enforce negative punishment, by taking away their toys. This way, the child is forced to clean their room, as the distraction is removed.

operant conditioning uses the concepts of rewards and punishments to associate with a behavior. you could use things like candy rewards when kindergarteners are quiet during reading or something. i personally use positive reinforcement ( via candy ) during work to encourage kids to clean :)

Operant conditioning could be used to condition a student to do their homework by repeatedly rewarding them with praise when they have completed the work. You can also provide operant with punishments for not doing homework.

Operant conditioning is when you use consequences to get someone or something to do something. An example of this would be if you spray a cat with water to get them to stop jumping on the counter. This would eventually get them to stop jumping on the counter because they don’t want to get sprayed.

An example of operant conditioning is the idea of allowance after doing chores. Many people don’t want to do their chores so they need a positive attribute to their chore. Adding money to a bad experience makes someone want to do it again

if you are teaching like a dog a trick giving rewards for doing something right or close to it so over time they will keep doing it for rewards

Make a child clean his room. I would use the Positive Reinforcement of letting him watch his favorite TV in the afternoon. When he cleans his room let him watch TV. when he does not clean his room don't let him watch TV and tell him about what he missing out on and tell him that if he cleans his room he can watch TV.

Operating conditioning is a concept where you use rewards, reinforcements and such to get someone to preform a certain behavior. for example if you want to teach a dog to sit a treat is a good reward to get the to do it.

Giving them an extra work task just so you can take the task away when the individual does their work on time or well. Negative reinforcement is when you take something away as a treat. Instead of doing the bare minimum to get away from a punishment people will put more effort if it saves them time In the future
