I also like the word affect, because it puts the lie to the prescription that effect is a always a noun and affect likewise a verb. Affect as a noun goes back aways before modern psychology. Flatness of affect has often been called 'cool' in the vernacular, starting with James Dean's performance in Rebel Without a Cause. It is currently super popular with teenaged males.
