No. A generalization cannot be proved correct. Even this generalization about a generalization could be incorrect. Anywho, and generalization could never be proven correct.

Not every argument that jumps to a conclusion is a hasty generalization. A hasty generalization specifically involves drawing a conclusion about a group based on insufficient evidence. Other types of fallacies exist that involve different types of faulty reasoning.

generalization: an idea or conclusion having general application; "he spoke in broad generalities".

I wouldn't say it is. It's more of a conclusion word for a paragraph or essay.
The paragraph employs the fallacy of hasty generalization, making a sweeping conclusion based on insufficient evidence or a small sample size.
A generalization is started from a group of observations. It's when specific observations reach a general conclusion, when the conclusion is made, then it is a generalization of all other things. Ex. "All things are made from cells" This is a generalization called the cell theory. People observed many things made from cells, inferred that it was true, and then made more observations to confirm it. The funny thing is I went on google to answer this question for my homework, I just answered it myself. Odd how you get such instant answers by using a search engine ... hint: that's what they're for!
An inference is a logical conclusion based on observations. A generalization is a logical conclusion based on many observations and data. The difference between the two is that inferences deal with specifics pertaining to the experiment being worked on, while generalizations are more "general" and apply more to the idea than the specific experiment.
A generalization refers to a conclusion drawn from sociological research that is meant to apply to broad categories of people but to which many exceptions will always exist. This allows sociologists to describe patterns in society while recognizing that individual behavior may vary.
Inductive reasoning draws a conclusion based on observed patterns or evidence. For example, if every time you eat strawberries you get a stomach ache, you may conclude that you are allergic to strawberries. This conclusion is based on multiple instances of observation leading to a likely generalization.
