well-behavedness
Polite, proper demeanor
Well-behavedness is the quality of behaving properly or according to expectations.
The term appears most often in technical contexts—mathematics, statistics, and computer science—where a well-behaved function or system operates predictably within defined parameters.
In everyday use, it describes people, especially children, who follow rules and show good manners: The teacher praised the class for their well-behavedness during the assembly.
