Explanation:

For example, generalization is seen in Pavlov’s experiment with dogs, after the pairing of the meat powder with the tone of a bell. The dog which naturally salivates as an unconditioned response to the meat powder (unconditioned stimulus), also later produce similar response (conditioned response) when presented only with the sound of a bell (conditioned response). This is generalization in classical conditioning, as the dog responds in a similar way to meat powder and also to the tone of a bell.
