I also like this affect psychology primer which discusses shame among other things (it is written in a slightly patronizing tone, but the content is interesting) : http://www.tomkins.org/wp-content/up...logy-Kelly.pdf
Thanks. I started reading it, realized I need to get some stuff done and finish it later, but I already learned what my t meant when he said I have low affect and plan to use this in a discussion about why he thinks this.

I realize the articles were really meant for someone else but I want in, too. :-)
