Generality (psychology)

The Assumption of Generality underlies the research work of the experimental analysis of behavior in which the effects of schedules of reinforcement in non-humans (often pigeons) is assumed to generalize to humans. Generality can effect many daily things in a person. The naturalization of the sun light helps our bodies to stay awake and keep motivated. The darkness that comes with night tells are body to slow down for the day and get some rest. The ability to survive comes with generality. Experiments have been done to test inescapability and insolubility.

Fergus Lowe has questioned the generality of schedule effects in cases of fixed-interval performance among humans and non-humans.

Famous quotes containing the word generality:

    The generality of men are naturally apt to be swayed by fear rather than reverence, and to refrain from evil rather because of the punishment that it brings than because of its own foulness.
    Aristotle (384–322 B.C.)
