AFFINITY SCALE
  1. a scale which refers to the individual’s relation with other people. The affinity scale may refer, at any particular time, to just one or to a small number of people. But as affinity is suppressed repeatedly, the individual will begin to take on an habitual tone level, on the affinity scale, an habitual reaction to almost all people. (NOTL, p. 102)
  2. the affinity scale includes most of the common emotions, apathy, grief, fear, anger, hostility, boredom, relief, contentment, enthusiasm, exhilaration, inspiration. (SOS Gloss)
