Showing movement or orientation toward a stimulus or goal.
From Latin 'ad-' (toward) + '-ient' (moving). Used as an adjective form in psychological contexts describing approach-oriented behavior.
This is one of those words that sounds like it should be common but exists only in psychology textbooks—it perfectly describes approaching behavior, but 'friendly' or 'welcoming' beat it in everyday use.
