Eli is afraid of bees and has been ever since he was nearly stung by one a few months ago. Lately, his father has been very distressed to see that Eli is now afraid of any flying insect, even tiny ones like gnats. The fact that Eli gets terribly afraid and runs to another room whenever he sees a flying "bug" demonstrates a. discrimination. b. acquisition. c. generalization. d. inhibition.

The correct answer is C. Generalization

Explanation:

Generalization is a process that involves applying a particular case or situation to many other situations or cases that are considered similar. In learning and behavior, generalization most commonly occurs as one particular past experience affects reactions, behaviors or ideas in subsequent "similar" situations that are considered as similar by the individual.

This process occurs in the case presented because Eli's negative experience with a bee determined her behavior and reactions in other situations she considers as similar. This explains why she behaves or reacts negatively if there is a flying insect near to her.
