A "triangular trade" operated, whereby ships carried European manufactures to Africa and exchanged them for slaves, who were then taken to the Americas, where they were traded for sugar, molasses, cotton, tobacco, indigo and other goods, which were brought back to Europe. It is estimated that, between the sixteenth and nineteenth centuries, over twelve million Africans were transported across the Atlantic, most of whom came from West Africa.

Answer:

Stimulus generalization

Explanation:

Stimulus generalization in psychology, can be defined as an occurrence whereby an individual tends to respond to a stimuli the same way the individual responded to a previous similar stimuli.

For example, the painful experience on Jasmine's recent visit to the doctor who gave her a painful injection has made her to refuse going to the same doctor. Not only does Jasmine respond to this same doctor, but also responded in the same way towards any other doctor or dentist by refusing to see anyone of them.
