Generalization is one key topic that I found very interesting
in this chapter. Generation is basically the act or process of generalizing.
One thing that stuck out in my head when reading about generalization was
stereotypes. For example, the typical stereotype that all Asians are smart.
Although you might see many Asians that are smart, it is not true that all
Asians are. Not only is generalization a part of stereotypes it is an everyday
thing that every single person does. For example, I work at Tully’s Coffee here
at SJSU in the Dinning Commons and I generalize peoples’ order, because they
order the same drink every day. Therefore I can generation the fact that they
will order it again the next time.
