The statement that trainees should only be rewarded when they are able to generalize concepts learned in the training process is not likely to be included in the report because it is not entirely accurate. While encouraging generalization is important, trainees should be rewarded for making progress and demonstrating mastery of the material regardless of whether they are able to generalize it to new situations. Therefore, this point is not a key principle of conditioning theory that is relevant to training.
