Reasoning
It is a class of cognitive behavior for which correct responding on test trials requires an inference based on incomplete experience
transitive inference
A>B
B>C
C>D
D>E
B>D
D>B
A correct response on this relational learning task requires than an inference be made about the relation between B and D a task than involves four propositions, each of which is sometimes greater and sometimes lesser
in humans, if the stimuli differ in observable value (like size) then a correct response can be made whithout the need to make an inference
a nonverbal relational form of the task coud be represented by simple simultaneous discriminations in which one stimulus is associated with reinforcement + and the other is not -

it is a kind of inductive reasoning in which two different situations are related but which respond to the same logic, that is supported by a given process
whit this is possible to reach a conclusion, based on previously established assumptions and establishing a comparison between these, in order to obtain a result of an analogy
