Spanish term or phrase: líneas de investigación sobre los afectos, recursos y fortalezas del ser humano
Hola!
En esta frase tengo una duda con respecto a afecto, yo lo dejaría así "Lines of Investigation on affection, resources and strengths of the human being", pero me reclaman que mejor sería dejarlo como affect en vez de affection.
Como no tengo mucha experiencia en este tema, me preguntaba cuál sería la opción que darían ustedes al respecto.
Muchas gracias!
