Question

3 a college student ate some pizza that had been left out for a couple of days and had meat in it that spoiled. the student got sick from this and would not eat any meat after that. this is an example of which of the following?
multiple choice
contingency
extinction
generalization
discrimination

Explanation:

This scenario involves a learned aversion to a similar stimulus (meat) after a negative experience with a related stimulus (spoiled pizza with meat). Generalization in conditioning occurs when a response to one stimulus extends to similar stimuli. Contingency refers to the link between a stimulus and outcome, extinction is the fading of a conditioned response, and discrimination is responding differently to distinct stimuli, which do not fit this example.

Answer:

generalization
