Affectation is an artificial or habitual mannerism, and is used in writing to indirectly indicate some characteristic of a character.
Affectation is similar to a pose or "air," an adopted form of expression, as in an air of authority, or putting on airs. A reference to a character may illustrate the affectation without explaining why it is done. These include spoken dialogue as well as actions.
