ORIGINAL: MasterSlaveLA Punishment is "negative reinforcement"... the AVOIDANCE of pain. Works for some, not for all. That's a common misconception. Punishment is the application of pain (be it physical, mental, emotional, etc), while negative reinforcement rewards the trainee by removing pain (like taking off a chastity device, unshackling, etc). Reinforcement acts as a reward, while punishment is, well, punishment, and only works to stop a behavior from happening, but won't permanently change it or shape a new behavior. Sorry, I don't mean to get all technical, but since I discovered this lifestyle I've been curious about that in particular tbh. Negative reinforcement would be the removal of pain if the pain is what the person desires. Negative reinforcement in general is "No, you did that wrong!" Positive is "Good job!" No?
