“…Classic studies of stimulus generalization in pigeons, for instance, revealed graded responses to unreinforced colors as a function of similarity to the CS+ along the color spectrum (Guttman & Kalish, 1956). The shape of the generalization gradient along neutral sensory dimensions like color, tone frequency, or shape tends to be symmetrical and peak at the trained stimulus (CS+).…”

“…Shepard (1965) scaled the classic data of Guttman and Kalish (1956) on generalization across wavelengths of light in pigeons. The data consisted of several gradients with S + at different wavelengths.…”

“…Terrace, 1966;Mackintosh, 1974;Pearce et al, 1997). One of the fundamental observations on how stimuli control response is referred to as stimulus generalization in psychology (Guttman & Kalish, 1956;Mackintosh, 1974). This refers to the fact that an organism responds in similar ways to many variants of stimulation.…”
