Kaplan says that after negative reinforcement "the animal is less likely to repeat the behavioral response." I'm pretty sure that negative reinforcement actually increases the response. For example, when you fasten your seatbelt the annoying buzzing goes away. This makes you more likely to fasten your seatbelt. I've always learned reinforcements increase behavior and punishment decreases the likelihood.
