Razran's levels

 What are Razran's levels?

-Grade I: Reactive Learning (nonassociative; habituation; sensitization)

-Grade II: Connective Learning (associative; inhibitory conditioning; classical conditioning; instrumental conditioning)

-Grade III: Integrative Learning (learning to perceive; sensory preconditioning; configuring learning; educative learning)

-Grade IV: Symbolic Learning (symbosemic; sememic; logimemic)


Symbosemic:  the formation & use of symbols to represent categories

Sememic: conveying a higher level of abstract meaning as in language

Logimemic: the emergence and use of logic in conveying meaning


Razran's levels of learning representing an evolutionary hierarchy

-11 levels of learning complexity ranging from nonassociative habituation through complex symbolic learning

-learning plays an increasing important role in development among more recently evolved species (more complex forms of learning are observed only in birds and mammals)

-many of the more complex forms of learning correlate strongly increases in brain size and complexity
