Explanation:

Negative punishment involves removing a pleasant stimulus to decrease the likelihood of a behavior recurring. Here, parents remove children from pleasant surroundings (a pleasant stimulus) after misbehavior, aiming to reduce future misbehavior. Negative reinforcement increases behavior by removing an aversive stimulus; observational learning is learning via observation; positive punishment adds an aversive stimulus. Thus, the practice matches negative punishment.
