Answer:

1. Generalization

Explanation:

This would be an example of stimulus generalization. Stimulus generalization refers to a situation in which a conditioned stimulus evokes similar responses after the response has been conditioned. In this example, Janine's PTSD is triggered by guns, explosions and other sounds of war. However, due to stimulus generalization, she will also have a reaction to sounds that are similar, such as firecrackers and cars backfiring.
