[xmca] "higher psychic function"

[Colette Murphy <c.a.murphy@qub.ac.uk>]

Dear All
I'd be very interested to hear your views on how to edit/reword/rewrite the phrase "higher psychic function" in relation to Vygotsky's CH theory so that it be best read/understood/accepted by educationalists (more specifically, science education researchers)? I'm happy to engage off-list if this query is better treated that way.
Thanks a million
Colette
