Abstract: A finite group $G$ is called $psi$-divisible if $psi(H)|psi(G)$ for any subgroup $H$ of $G$, where $psi(H)$ and $psi(G)$ are the sum of element orders of $H$ and $G$, respectively. In this paper, we extend a result provided in [10], by classifying the finite groups whose all subgroups are $psi$-divisible. Since the existence of $psi$-divisible groups is related to the class of square-free order groups, we also study the sum of element orders and the $psi$-divisibility property of ZM-groups. In the end, we introduce the concept of $psi$-normal divisible group, i.e. a group for which the $psi$-divisibility property is satisfied by all its normal subgroups. Using simple and quasisimple groups, we are able to construct infinitely many $psi$-normal divisible groups which are neither simple nor nilpotent.
