What is the difference between stimulus generalization and response generalization?

Stimulus generalization occurs when a response is triggered by stimuli that are similar to the original conditioned stimulus, while response generalization involves the production of different responses to the same stimulus. For example, if a dog learns to sit when hearing a bell, it may also sit when hearing a similar sound (stimulus generalization). In contrast, if the dog learns to sit and then also learns to lie down in response to the same bell, that would be an example of response generalization. Essentially, stimulus generalization is about the stimuli that evoke a response, while response generalization is about the variety of responses elicited by the same stimulus.

What is any observable response to a stimulus?

In the topic area of shopping, stimulus most likely refers to economic and socioeconomic stimulus. Observable refers to if there is a noticable change (due to socioeconomic stimulus). An example of an observable response would be if corporate management of a company were to add a new branch of such a company or its product line. On the other hand, if a company discontinued a branch or product line then one could observe the response to the lack of stimulus.

Unconditioned Stimulus is an event or thing that automatically triggers a response. an example would be. when you smell your favorite food cooking, your mouth may salivate. the smell is an unconditioned stimulus which, in turn, brings rise to the salivating (unconditioned or conditioned response).

What is the relationship between a stimulus and a response?

A response is always triggered by a stimulus. One example is in a neuron (nerve cell). Once a sensory stimulus is witnessed (a stimulus from one of the 5 senses), the cell hits an action potential, and the response is carried out. Simply put: A human eye is closed. Once the eye opens thousands of sensors in the eye pick up the photons bouncing off all objects (stimulus), and the human is able to see (response).


Neutral stimulus is the same as what?

Neutral stimulus is the same as a conditioned stimulus before it has been paired with an unconditioned stimulus in classical conditioning. It is a stimulus that does not elicit a response initially, but can become a conditioned stimulus through association with an unconditioned stimulus.


What is the difference stimulus and response?
