Answer 2

Answer:Generalization

Explanation:In psychology, Generalization refers to how a person tends to respond the same way to diffrent but similar stimuli.

Gunfire and fire works both make loud noise and this is their similarity but they are different , fireworks are mostly used for entertainment activities whilst guns are used in war .

However since Kadin has lived in a region where she was exposed to gunfire , as a result she associates loud noises to gunfire , hence anything with loud noise triggers the same response as that triggered by gunfire
