The aim is to present a new framework for understanding human learning as a systems-integration process.
Introduced the Systems-Integrative Learner (SIL) as a structural theory of human learning.
Defined learning as coherence stabilization governed by the Coherence Integration Kernel (CIK).
Outlined a recursive learning loop involving perception, deconstruction, mapping, and integration.
Identified seven stability bands (SIL-1 to SIL-7) representing maximum complexity in learning.
Formalized constraints on learning capacity that vary across individuals and domains.
Positioned SIL within the context of neo-Piagetian and postformal developmental theories.

This framework models human learning as coherence stabilization under integrative load, suggesting new avenues for development.

Peter Brunzelle (2026) studied this question.
