I am not sure I quite understand this. Is the buzzer used as a positive reinforcement (as is, say, the clicker which tells the dog "yes, you're doing that right") or a negative reinforcement (as say a replacement for the stimulus/nick which says, in effect... "you need to be more precise, put in more effort, be more prompt".)

I'm not formulating the question very well, but maybe you get the gist of what I'm asking.
