The question concerning the "real" or extrapsychic reference of cognition in general raises, by its very statement, the great question of the truth, validity, reality, not only of the objective, but also of the psychic as itself in some sense real.
1906, James Mark Baldwin, Thought and Things Volume 1, Srinivasa Varadachari & Company, page 12There can be no such thing as extrapsychic or metapsychic. The neglect of this fundamental fact has given rise to all sorts of supposititious problems about self-subsisting unknowable things, foreign to one's consciousness but working on it.
