b. Negative reinforcement
c. Positive reinforcement
d. Positive punishment

The correct answer is the option B: Negative reinforcement.

Explanation:

To begin with, in the field of behavioral psychology and business management the concept known as "Reinforcement" refers to the action or process of changing or keeping someone's behavior by the action of having an specific reaction that will be negative or positive accepted by the individual whose behavior we are looking to change or maintain. Therefore that the reinforcement is followed by a particular stimulus that the individual normally has when making the action that we want to change or keep.

The negative reinforcement refers to the process of producing a consequence with the purpose of avoiding or trying to stop certain stimulus so that the individual will stop that behavior in order to avoid the consequence.
