Question

Matthew's baseball coach is helping him improve his hitting. During practice the coach has the pitcher throw fast balls, curve balls, and sliders so that Matthew experiences a variety of pitches, and will be more likely to hit the ball successfully during a game. Which strategy for promoting generalization is the coach using?

Answer 1

Answer:

The strategy is to Incorporate a variety of relevant stimulus situations in training.

Explanation:

The strategy Mathew's baseball coach is using is to Incorporate a variety of relevant stimulus situations in training.

With this training, Mathew's stimuli response during a game is going to be according to stimuli situations he received in training. The coach is using a strategy for promoting generalization training using sufficient stimulus exemplars. If Mathew is trained to respond correctly to a range of relevant stimulus situations (stimulus exemplars) it would be more likely for him to generalize to all relevant stimulus situations during a game
