stimulus generalization
Stimulus generalization is a psychological principle wherein a learned response to a specific stimulus is generalized, or applied, to similar stimuli. This occurs when an individual or animal respond to a new stimulus in the same way they would respond to the original stimulus due to perceived similarities or associations between the two. For example, if a dog is conditioned to salivate at the sight of a red circle (original stimulus), it may also salivate when presented with an orange circle (similar/new stimulus).
