effectus, ūs, m. [efficio], a doing, effecting.

  1. In gen., execution, accomplishment, performance
  2. In partic., with reference to the result of an action, an operation, effect, tendency, purpose


affectus (adf-), ūs, m. [afficio].

  1. A state of body, and esp. of mind produced in one by some influence (cf. affectio, I.), a state or disposition of mind, affection, mood
  2. Love, desire, fondness, good-will, compassion, sympathy

The substitution takes place in the prepositional phrase, originally: ex proprio effectu, meaning something like, "from one's own accomplishment. After the substitution, we have ex proprio affectu, meaning "from one's own disposition/goodwill".
