One common procedure that uses negative punishment is response cost, where a desirable stimulus or item is removed as a consequence for an undesired behavior. This can help decrease the likelihood of that behavior happening in the future. On the other hand, positive reinforcement (A) involves adding a desirable stimulus or reward to increase the likelihood of a behavior. Mand (C) is a procedure used in verbal behavior therapy to teach functional communication skills and vocal SD (D) is a controlling antecedent used to evoke a specific response. Both of these options do not involve negative punishment. Therefore, option B is the correct answer.
