1. Encodings
Categories (constructs) for characterizing self, others, events, and situations.
Situations can be interpreted or construed in any number of ways. People use cognitive processes to transform these stimuli into personal constructs, by consulting their self concept, worldviews, and how they look at people.

3. Affects
Affects include emotions, feelings, physiological reactions. Ultimately, affects are not isolated aspects of a persons framework. They are overlapping and inseparable with cognition and other Cognitive Affective Units. Affects primarily influence a persons reaction and response to particular situations.

Behaviors
Encoding Process
Walter Mischels theory is a product of a long experimental work. His theory is not a theory of personality in the classical sense. It is not a theory that shows individual peculiarities or characteristics in terms of the self as agent. Rather, CAPS understands the person as processor. It provides the connection between the Person-Processor and the Situation-Perceived. Whereas, Psychoanalysis and Humanism speak in universal terms and Behaviorism, too narrow, Social Cognitive Theories strike a balance between traits and circumstance. In that, it has become an emerging zeitgeist in the pursuit of integrative understanding the human person.
