Ego syntonic behaviors are characterized by what feeling towards the behavior?

Guilt
No guilt
Indifference
Pride

The correct answer is: No guilt

Ego syntonic behaviors refer to behaviors that align with one's personal values and beliefs, therefore causing no feelings of guilt. Option A, guilt, is incorrect because feeling guilty would suggest that the behavior is in conflict with one's values. Option C, indifference, is incorrect because indifference means a lack of interest or concern, which does not accurately describe how one would feel towards ego syntonic behaviors. Option D, pride, is also incorrect because feeling pride would suggest attachment to the behavior instead of simply alignment with one's values.
