How does one use positive reinforcement to stop a one year old from doing something?

To me, positive reinforcement works best on older kids who understand they have a certain choice to make. If they’re slacking on their homework, well, when they DO do their homework, make a big deal out of it or give them a reward of some kind. (Which, BTW, I am not a big fan of rewarding kids for doing what they’re supposed to be doing, but we’ll set that aside for now.)
But how would this apply to a one year old who keeps doing something she’s not supposed to do? How do you reward her for not doing something, when you don’t know if she has it in her mind to do the Bad Thing, but choose not to?
