psychologického

Psychologického is the genitive singular form of the Czech adjective psychologický, meaning "psychological." It is used to describe things related to psychology, the science of mind and behavior, or to frame terms in a psychological sense. As a declined adjective, psychologického appears in phrases where the modified noun is in the genitive case.

Etymology and background: The term derives from psychologicky, itself built from psychology (psychologie) and the adjectival suffix -ický. The root psyche, meaning mind or soul, and the study-ended suffix -logia trace to Greek, with the word entering Czech through the broader borrowing of psychological terminology in the 19th century.

Usage in language: Common contexts include scientific and academic discourse, such as psychologického výzkumu (of psychological research), psychologického testu (of a psychological test), or psychologického profilu (a psychological profile). It also appears in descriptions of theories, methods, or phenomena presented in psychological terms.

Grammatical notes: Psychologického is specifically the genitive singular form; the base form is psychologický. The adjective agrees with the noun in gender, number, and case. Other forms of the same adjective appear in different cases and numbers (e.g., psychologický, psychologická, psychologické) to fit the noun they modify.

Translation: In English, psychologického corresponds to "psychological" when used within genitive constructions, as in "of psychological research."
