FYI: Negative reinforcement is the wrong term. Negative reinforcement is the taking away of an aversive stimulus to increase certain behavior or response.
A negative emotional jolt when pointed out you’re wrong wouldn’t be negative reinforcement, it would be positive punishment: the adding of an aversive stimulus to decrease a certain behavior or response.
