Answer:
c. The researcher tests several bells that sound very similar to the original bell, and the dog salivates.
Explanation:
Stimulus generalization in the most simplest of explanation is the tendency to respond to a stimulus that is only similar to the original conditioned stimulus with the conditioned response. In this instance, the dog salivates to another bell that sounds almost similar to the original bell. It is able to generalize and see that this bell is similar enough to some other bell that was also able to evoke a condition response. The dog is able to recognize the bell, which is different in frequency but same in note and tone and salivates. Dogs, like humans, hear sounds the same way that we do.
Answer:
The representativeness heuristic
Explanation:
The representativeness heuristic is used when making judgments about the chances of an event under obscurity.
The representativeness heuristic is simply described as assessing similarity of objects and organizing them based around the category prototype (e.g., like goes with like, and causes and effects should resemble each other).
This heuristic is used because it is an easy assessment.
