AFFECTIVE TRAITS
- These are traits related to one’s attitude, behavior, level of
acceptance, etc. McMillan (2001) provided a summary of
these traits where most students’ affect involves both
emotional and cognitive beliefs.
1. Attitude
- Predisposition to respond favorably or unfavorably to
specified situations, concepts, objects, institutions or persons
2. Interest
- Personal preference for certain kinds of activities
3. Value
- Importance, worth, or usefulness of mode or conduct and end
