BEHAVIOUR
Behaviours are our actions, reactions and conduct. Behaviour is how we act in various situations
or under certain conditions. Examples of behaviours include: sleeping, eating, playing tennis,
crying, walking, yelling, watching television, reading, riding a bicycle etc. Thus, just about anything
we do can be considered a behaviour.
Some people may be described as “doers” – they are action-oriented; they like to keep busy, get
things done, take on various projects. On the scale below, circle the number that best reflects to
what degree you are a doer.

“Affect” is the psychological term for feelings, moods and emotions. Some affects are positive
(such as joy), while others can be called negative (such as depression). Other examples of affects
include: happiness, annoyance, contentment, anxiety, jealousy, anger, excitement, guilt, and
shame.
Some people are very emotional but may or may not openly express emotions. How emotional are
you? How deeply do you feel things? How passionate are you?

SENSATION
“Sensation” refers to the five basic human senses: sight, sound, smell, touch, and taste. In
addition, the sensation dimension involves elements of sensuality and sexuality. Sometimes
sensory experience is pleasant (for example, the smell of a fresh rose or the taste of apple pie)
while at other times sensations can be unpleasant (for example, the pain of a stiff neck or a tension
headache, or the smell of rotten eggs).
