What is differences of response generalization and stimulus generalization?

Answer:
Generalization refers to the spread of effects (perhaps from a treatment, or intervention). Stimulus generalization occurs when the same response occurs but under a different, setting, condition, or for a different therapist or parent perhaps (i.e., different stimuli). Response generalization occurs when the individual emits a different response which serves the same function as previously reinforced responses, the setting (i.e., stimulus) remains unaltered. For instance a friend might teach you how to do the Konami code (up, up, down, down, left, right, left right, b, a, start) on an old Nintendo controller. Later you perform the code on the same game (same stimulus conditions) but using joystick controller.
