The study of lexical units in a specific field is one of the

important issues in linguistics. In this regard, examining the

derivation of such lexical units is particularly crucial. The field of

psychology is developing both globally and in our country. As any

field evolves, its lexical units and terminology expand, which in turn

necessitates their systematization. This article focuses on the

formation of psychological lexical units in English and Uzbek

through syntactic derivation, one of the methods of term formation.

Specifically, it examines two main models for creating psychological

lexical units in English and Uzbek: noun+noun and adjective+noun

models, using examples. The types of connections within these

models are also analyzed with examples. The noun+noun model is

analyzed in three different connection types, while the

adjective+noun model is examined in two different connection

methods. Through examples, similarities and differences between the

compared languages are identified. The research employs component

analysis, distributive analysis, typological analysis, and statistical

analysis methods. The main objective of this article is to conduct a

comparative study of the syntactic derivation of lexical units related

to the field of psychology in English and Uzbek. By determining the

specific syntactic relationships between them, this study significantly

contributes to the classification and systematization of lexical units in

the languages under investigation.
