Affect is the temporary behavioral expression of feelings or state of mind. Appropriate affect is emotional expression that is congruent with a situation. For example, a high school student who cheers upon learning that she was accepted to a prestigious college would be a display of appropriate affect. Inappropriate affect is the display of feelings that are incongruent with the circumstances. For example, a family member laughing at a funeral would be a display of inappropriate affect.
