Generality (psychology):
 All or part of this article may be confusing or unclear.
Please help clarify the article. Suggestions may be on the talk page. (August 2007)

The Assumption of Generality underlies the research work of the experimental analysis of behavior in which the effects of schedules of reinforcement in non-humans (often pigeons) is assumed to generalize to humans.[1] [2] [3]

Fergus Lowe has questioned the generality of schedule effects in cases of fixed-interval performance among humans and non-humans (Lowe 1979)[4]
