Word origin
The word 'psychologically' is derived from the word 'psychology', which comes from the Greek words 'psyche' meaning 'soul' or 'mind' and 'logos' meaning 'study'. The term psychology was first used in the 16th century to refer to the study of the mind and behavior. Over time, the adverb 'psychologically' was formed to describe actions or processes related to the mind and its functions.
