summary	Reinforcement involves using positive outcomes after certain actions, while latency measures how long it takes for an action to start following stimulation. Reinforcement aims at increasing desired responses by rewarding them which makes that response more likely in future; on contrary maladaptive behaviors should be eliminated or reduced through negative reinforcement (removal of unfavorable stimulus) and/or punishment. Negative reinforcement is when a behavior occurs because it's being removed from the situation, as for example with homework getting completed to get rid of nagging. Maladaptive behaviours are those that may cause harm/inconvenience/pain in individuals. Punishment always involves introducing an aversive outcome following undesirable behaviour - this will result not only into decrease (but also elimination) of unwanted responses but can increase anxiety, thus leading even further undesired outcomes. Negative reinforcement and punishment usually have different effects on the person involved. Negative reinforcers are generally more effective because they teach people what to do in order for a certain condition be removed from their lives - this makes it easier/faster learning process whereas punishers just make sure that behaviour is not repeated, thus leading individuals towards compliance (without giving them an understanding of why), and may even cause anxiety or stress which leads further undesired outcomes. In addition negative reinforcement can also help with increasing desired behaviors. A person will learn what they need to do in order for the aversive stimulus be eliminated - if this behavior is something beneficial, then positive change occurs; however it often requires an ongoing intervention and a constant presence of someone that ensures desirable actions are rewarded whereas punishments only work during specific instances (unless you have a professional or authority enforcing them). The idea behind reinforcement vs. punishment seems to also rely on whether the individual has control over their own behavior - if they can easily change what they're doing then positive reinforcements like encouragement and rewards will be more effective, while negative ones are less likely for individuals who can't see ways of altering things. If you need some specific examples or want any further explanations feel free to ask. Hope this helps!
