Any suggestions on the classes that reference a theory.

In the BFO framework, I think theories are best represented as type of ICE.

In plain language, theories are information that researchers use to assert or explain why a domain behaves in a certain way. A theory in and of itself is inert. For example, the theory of general relativity explains the "wobble" of Mercury's orbit, whereas Newton's theories could not. However, general relativity does not "cause" Mercury's orbit to wobble.

For purposes of PHASES, we probably don't need to go too deep into a metaphysical account of theories.

How is 'psychological theory' defined? I did not find the term in phases ontology.
