Answer: Stimulus generation
Explanation:
Stimulus generation is the tendency of a new stimulus to bring out responses or behaviors similar to those elicited by another stimulus. For example, Ivan Pavlov conditioned dogs to salivate using the sound of a bell and food powder. This is using situations to build a different kind of stimuli into beings. The child becoming fearful of any white, fuzzy object is due to him being conditioned to being afraid of fuzzy, white teddy-bear, by associating it with a sudden, loud sound thereby generating a Stimulus generation.
This response of the child is what is referred to as stimulus generalization.
Stimulus generalization can be regarded as a situation whereby a person has become conditioned to a particular stimuli and then they respond to other stimuli that are similar to the conditioned response.
