Can it ever be both stimulus generalization and response generalization at the same time?

[@ReadySetABA]

Does anyone else have thoughts on this questions? Not in my experience, stimuli are a part of the environment that can evoke certain behaviors whereas responses interact with the environment and are in response to stimuli. I think examples are the best way to explain.

I am confused about stimulus and response with a mock question.... say a child drinks from a can of soda and then goes to another room and sees a can of soup and then drinks from the can of soup... would that be response generalization or stimulus generalization? None of the answer choices reported faulty stimulus control....

Stimulus generalization

[@ReadySetABA]

Good question. In this case, it is the same response but with a different stimuli, so this would be needing to teach stimulus discrimination (between the two cans). Technically, this is overgeneralization and is related to the stimuli.
