Answer:
Generalization.
Explanation:
'Generalization' is demonstrated as the tendency of the organism to display the similar/identical conditioned response to distinct stimuli(presented similarly).
As per the given description, the reactions displayed by Monica before her therapist demonstrate the significance of 'generalization'. Her mixed emotional reactions to the therapist reflects the similar pattern of response as the stimuli presented by the therapist is similar to the stimuli when she interacted with her father. Thus, this elicitation of the similar response to different but similar(as presented) stimuli exemplify that how this generalized tendency affects our responses.
