Strengthening a behavior by presenting a desirable stimulus or reward immediately after the behavior occurs.
From Latin 'positivus' (settled) + Old French 'reinforcier' (to strengthen). Adding something positive to strengthen behavior.
Positive reinforcement is adding something good to encourage a behavior — a treat after a trick, a compliment after hard work, a like after a great post!
