None of the Occultic classes need spellbooks, but since the spells can be recorded as Scrolls, can they also be recorded in an occultic spellbook?
Can a Psychic spell that is also on the list of an Arcane or Divine caster be translated to an Arcane or Divine form? Or would they need a "Read Psychic Magic" spell to do something like that?

Spontaneous casters don't have spellbooks, so the only psychic caster who would have a spellbook would be a Blood Arcanist who selected the Psychic Bloodline.

I'm not exactly sure what you are asking here.
Occult Adventures specifies that Psychic scrolls are a separate class of scrolls from Arcane and Divine. A wizard can no more use a Psychic scroll of Protection from Evil than he could a Divine scroll.
Psychic Spellbooks don't exist, because the ability to write (arcane) spells in a spellbook is a class ability (part of the Spellbook ability). A sorceror can't write a spellbook either.

Again, one type of psychic spellbook does exist. Blood Arcanists with the Psychic Bloodline would cast psychic spells due to their bloodline, but as Arcanists they would have and use spellbooks.

Agreed

Where in the book is this? I couldn't find it. Also, a psychic magic user can presumably create scrolls, since they apparently exist. What about wands, staves, rings, and rods? Do such exist for psychic magic?

In the scroll section of Occult Rewards "Scrolls are divided based on the type of magic used to create the scroll; psychic spellcasters create psychic scrolls in much the same way arcane spellcasters create arcane scrolls and divine spellcasters create divine scrolls."

Those magic items aren't tied to any type of magic.
I don't have the book in front of me, but here is Mark Seifter's comment on this issue.
They do. The reason scrolls get mentioned and they don't is because scrolls needed clarification on how they work, given spell completion and the components of a psychic spell, whereas spell trigger and use-activated just work normally.Do psychic potions exist? I noticed there's no mention of them in the book.
Oh and wands too.

Yes, Arcane Anthology introduces the concept of spellbooks for spont casters and occult spellcasters as well. They call them Meditation books.

True, but sorcerers can buy a spellbook and use it as a encoded cook book while pretending to be a wizard. I've done this, and it not only saved the party after we got captured and locked in a room which only magic could get us out of... but the party was going "What the... How the HELL did you cast burning hands?! You were out of spells!"
