If a generalization test were performed following the completion of simple tone-on/tone-off discrimination learning (as in Exercise 39) involving a 2.0-kHz tone, the DS Response Strength results from discrimination learning predict that responding during the generalization test would be
a. highest during the 1.0-kHz and 3.0 kHz tones.
b. lowest during the 1.0-kHz and 3.0-kHz tones.
c. highest during the 2.25-kHz tone.
d. lowest during the 2.0 kHz tone.
b. lowest during the 1.0-kHz and 3.0-kHz tones.
Answer feedback: During generalization testing, the S+ is predicted to produce the maximal rate of responding and the tones farthest from the S+, namely, 1.0 kHz and 3.0 kHz, the minimal rate.
