psychophysicadj.

Brit. /ˌsʌɪkəʊˈfɪzɪk/, U.S. /ˌsaɪkoʊˈfɪzɪk/
Origin: Formed within English, by compounding; probably modelled on a German lexical item. Etymons: psycho- comb. form, physic adj.
Etymology: < psycho- comb. form + physic adj., probably after German psychophysisch (G. T. Fechner 1858, in Abhandl. der Math.-Phys. Classe der Königlich Sächsischen Ges. der Wissensch. 4 455). Compare French psychophysique (1869 in Littré in this sense; 1754 in sense ‘psychophysiological’). Compare earlier psychophysical adj., psychophysics n., psychophysicist n.In psychophysic law n. after German psychophysisches Gesetz (1858 in the source cited above). N.E.D. (1908) also gives the pronunciation (psəik oˌfi·zik) /psaɪkəʊˈfɪzɪk/.
