    B. Operant conditioning

    Explanation:

    According to operant conditioning, learning is fostered through the association between a particular behavior and its consequence. It explains how the rewards or punishment modified the behavior of an individual. The theory states that rewards associated with immediate behavior would strengthen the repetition of that behavior in the future.

    As per the question when Joey gets punished for playing with matches and this negative reinforcement would reduce the behavior in the future.
