Yet another answer: mental phenomena

Charles Stanford (asker) Jan 26, 2021:

I don't think Ivan is too far off. I never realised that psychical or psychic could be used in that sense but it can - "relating to or happening in the mind rather than in the body" https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/psychic. I will go with Lubosh and Stuart's solution but am tempted to add an "agree" to Ivan to balance out the disagrees, because I don't think it is as cut and dried as all that! Thanks to everyone

Hannah Geiger Just put "psychical phenomena" including the parentheses into Google search

Hannah Geiger (X) Jan 26, 2021:

@Ivan I don't get your "It can neither be psychological, the phenomena exist even without psychology". I suppose I have long cables.:)
I can't open the link you gave, due to malwarebytes. However, the psychical looks pretty psychic to me https://dictionary.cambridge.org/us/dictionary/english/psych...

Lubosh Hanuska Jan 25, 2021:

psychic vs. psychological Those two terms are, of course, not the same, but related :-)
The meaning of "psychické" a "psychologické" in Czech is much closer, but still not identical.

Ivan Šimerka Jan 25, 2021:

Hannah Geiger, Jiří Lonský You are right, the common use of "psychic phenomena" has the meaning of "paranormal phenomena", anything to do with parapsychology. IMO, this is a sort of a short-cut, which can be seen in Czech, too.
It can neither be psychological, the phenomena exist even without psychology.

Then, what about "psychical phenomena"?

It's quite promising

Psychological ->concerning the science of psychology
Psychic ->concerning psyche

Stuart you are bloody good!

Stuart Hoskins Jan 25, 2021:

For what it’s worth Not that I trust it 100%, but Googling "psychological processes, psychological states, and" led me to “all psychological phenomena can be separated into three groups, psychological processes, psychological states, and psychological features”.
