Answer:

Inductive

Step-by-step explanation:

Empirical generalization is a form of INDUCTIVE reasoning by which a conclusion about an entire group is made based on the observation of a sample that is sufficiently representative of that group.

Inductive Reasoning utilizes one's experiences and observations to come up with a general conclusion/truth. This type of reasoning is different from deductive because the truth of the conclusion of inductive is probable while that of deductive is certain.
