psychologická

Psychologická is the feminine singular forms of the Czech and Slovak adjective meaning "psychological" or "relating to psychology." It is used to describe feminine nouns in these languages, often in compounds such as psychologická porucha (psychological disorder), psychologická podpora (psychological support), or psychologická diagnostika (psychological diagnosis). The term occurs across domains including clinical psychology, education, research, and everyday language.

Linguistically, psychologická derives from the root psycholog- plus the suffix -ická, aligning with the feminine form of the adjective. Other forms in the same word family include psychologický (masculine), psychologické (neuter or plural), and their declined variants, enabling agreement with noun gender and number. The word closely parallels the English term psychological, and in many contexts can be translated accordingly, for example as psychologická studie (psychological study) or psychologická evaluace (psychological evaluation).

In usage, psychologická is typically employed when the attribute is tied to human psychology, mental processes, behavior, or related methods and interventions. It is common in clinical descriptions, educational assessments, research reporting, and policy discourse. Since Czech and Slovak share similar grammar and vocabulary, the term functions similarly in both languages, though spelling and accent marks reflect the respective orthographies.
