- Distinction
Control (C):
The need for Control relates to decision making, influence, and persuasion between people; it determines the extent of power or dominance that a person seeks. Some desciptors associated with Control are:
- Power
- Authority
- Influence
- Responsibility
- Consistency
Affection (A):
The need for Affection relates to emotional ties and warm connections between people; it determines the extent of closeness that a person seeks. Some descriptors associated with Affection are:
- Personal ties
- Consensus
- Sensitivity
- Support
- Openness
For each of the three interpersonal need-Inclusion, Control, and Affection-the FIRO-B® instrument also provides a measure of how each need is Expressed or Wanted by you.
