get_class() — Returns the name of the class of an object
string get_class ([ object $object ] )
therefore you use it like this: $modelname=get_class($modelinstance);
->it returns a string.

I much prefer this method. There's no need to extend the model as get_class is built into php php.net/manual/en/function.get-class.php

This one is more efficient, in case you have 12 models, we cannot write 12 functions to get their names.
add this method to your State Class
public function getModelName()
{
return __CLASS__;
}
and call it like this:
$model = new State();
echo $model->getModelName();

Hi @Wager, Also I prefer toninoj more, why don't you accept an answer as true right now?
Use this PHP method : get_class
print get_class($object);

<?php
class Item extends CActiveRecord
{
public function getBaseModelName()
{
return __CLASS__;
}
public function getCalledClassName()
{
return get_called_class();
}
}
class Product extends Item {}
class Service extends Item {}
class ProductController extends CController
{
$model = new Product;
echo $model->baseModelName; // Item
}
class ServiceController extends CController
{
$model = new Service;
echo $model->calledClassName; // Service
echo get_class($model); // Service
}

To get State as the question asked, you may do this : -
basename(get_class($model))
