    Janie continues her drug use because it reduces her feelings of withdrawal - negative reinforcement.

    Explanation:

    When we talk about negative reinforcement we want to talk specifically about increasing the frequency of a particular behavior from the removal or because of the absence of the consequence that stimulated the perpetuation of the behavior. A perfect example of this is a situation where a person who continues his drug use because it reduces his withdrawal feelings

    Importantly, when the term reinforcement is in question, whether positive or negative, it is encouraged to increase the frequency of a given behavior. Already punishment works as a way to decrease the frequency of this behavior.
