Affectional action

"[2] The action taken by the individual is also described as a reaction that consists of a release as a result of emotional tension.

An affectional action may not always be uncontrolled and strictly reactive, as a person may act strictly on their emotions, but the emotions of the person may take some form of rationalization, resulting in an action that is not purely affectional anymore.

He may become frustrated with clients and want to shout, however, because of his job and the norms that accompany it, he is barred from his typical action.

Emotional labor is one of the major modifiers of the action and individual will take, regardless of their feeling state.

This will often occur when an individual is dealing with clients or customers and needs to give off a professional or "good" image, often suppressing the initial affectional action they may want to take.
