Generalizability is that quality of a research finding that justifies the inference that it represents something more than the specific observations on which it was based. Sometimes this involves the generalization of findings from a sample to a population. Other times it is a matter of concepts: if you are able to discover why people commit burglaries, can you generalize that discovery to other crimes as well?
For example, would the observations made in the Stanford Prison experiment be the same if the subjects were middle aged females from New York rather than college students in California?
