Explanation:
Operant Conditioning: Think "Consequences" - or the fact that dogs learn through actions resulting in rewards or punishments. For example: You have trained your dog to sit and become calm before putting the leash on to go for a walk. In this case the dog must perform a voluntary action of sitting and relaxing.

The Four Principles of Operant Conditioning for Dogs
The scientific principles of operant conditioning, developed by behavioral scientist B.F. Skinner in the 1950s, apply to all creatures with a central nervous system. While the terminology initially can be confusing, if you remember the following definitions it’s really quite simple:
Positive: Means something is added.
Negative: Means something is taken away.
Reinforcement: Behavior is likely to increase or strengthen.
Punishment: Behavior is likely to decrease or extinguish.
