    Answer: stimulus generalization.

    Explanation:

    Stimulus generalization can happen in classical conditioning as well as in operant conditioning. When it's in operant conditioning, stimulus generalization describes the way people learn something in a specific situation and then can apply it to different but similar circumstances.

    In this example, Jessi first learned at preschool that to get a snack she has to wash her hands. Instead of having to relearn this practice at home, she applied the same rule she had already learned.
