I don't have statistics handy, but I'm willing to bet psychological torture is oftentimes just as detrimental (if not more so) in the long term than physical torture.

Physical torture can lead to more negative consequences for the defendant's country or homeland. Psychological appeals will simply cause truth to come about without causing physical harm.

that may or may not be true but we have to find out information somehow and physical torture is worse than psychological and there would be no evidence of psychological torture.
