Question

You have taught a student to wash his hands in the school bathroom. Without direct teaching, the student demonstrates the skill of hand washing in the school kitchen, at home, and at his afterschool program. This is an example of which type of generalization.

a: response generalizationb: stimulus/setting generalization

Answer 1

The answer is a. response generalization.

Step-by-step explanation:

Reponse generalisation occurs when a person presents similar behaviours to the target (or desired) behaviour, only in different places. In other words, the behaviours have the same function.

Another example is teaching a child to say "hello" when meeting a person. In time, the child may also start saying "hi" or "good morning" without direct teaching.
