Overgeneralization : the use of previously available strategies in new situations.
过度概括:由一个偶然事例而得出一种极端信信念并将之不适当地应用于不相似的事件或情境中。
英语举例如下:

The learner may infer
b. Jane told me to give up smoking.
Yet it will be misleading and inappropriate to infer
c. * Jane suggested me to give up smoking.错
d. The girl is in a blue ski jacket.
e. The girl is dressed in a blue ski jacket.
f. * The girl is worn in a blue ski jacket. 错
