What does NOETIC mean in Scrabble?

technical
Relating to the mind, to reason, or to purely intellectual activity, as opposed to physical or emotional experience.
Noetic comes from the Greek word for mind or intellect, and philosophers use it to describe knowledge, insight or activity that belongs to pure thought rather than to the senses or feelings. The word appears in philosophy of mind and in some strands of psychology and consciousness studies, where a noetic experience is one felt as a direct encounter with knowledge or truth. Outside academic writing, noetic remains a fairly specialized word, rarely used in everyday conversation.
