Morphology

studied = study (semi-transparent) = study + ed

Formed from 'study' + -ed (past participle) but the adjectival sense 'deliberate, premeditated' involves a sense shift from 'examined' and is not a fully literal derivation for learners.

Etymology

Studied comes from the everyday word study, and that in turn comes from the old Latin verb studere meaning 'to be eager' or 'to work at something'. So, if something is studied it is done on purpose and with careful planning.
