Abstract Affect has much effect on behavior, especially goal-oriented behavior, at the stage of goal setting. The process of stimulus with emotional valence can be divided into at least four steps, that is, perception, perception, recognition, inner reaction, and expression of emotion. Disorders of each step produce behavioral disturbances distinct from one another. In this article, definitions as well as possible mechanisms of the behavioral disturbances are described.
Keywords Affect, goal-oriented behavior, apathy, pathological crying and laughing
