them with ones compatible with actual practice.

to write affective objectives since achievement of them can be influenced more by forces
external to the training environment than achievement of cognitive or psychomotor
objectives. Instruction in the affective domain is the most difficult of the three domains and
is the most difficult to measure. Teaching in the affective domain can be by example (i.e.,
if the instructor follows the proper safety precautions when demonstrating a task, the
trainee will most likely follow the proper precautions). A method of achieving affective
goals (such as safety) in a program is to place the desired values in the standards of the
performance objectives. The course designers should incorporate the affective domain with
all learning objectives/lessons wherever possible to continually emphasize their importance
to effective and reliable job performance.

One way of classifying affective objectives is to group them into four levels based on
strength of commitment. The categories progress from simple awareness to overt
