Generally there is NO effect of behavior unless you are experiencing a low. When blood glucose gets too low you can become confused, irritated, and sometimes violent. Those lows are very dangerous so they need to be avoided as best as possible.

It's a hormone used as a signal to the body's cells that they should absorb the glucose in the bloodstream.
The effects of too much insulin are that too much glucose gets absorbed, leading to insufficient glucose in the bloodstream. The practical behavioural effects of this can include confusion, weakness and loss of consciousness in a relatively short time.
The effects of insufficient insulin are that not enough glucose gets absorbed, leading to having too much glucose in the bloodstream. Behavioural effects can include exreme tiredness, frequent thirst and need to urinate, and if untreated for a long time even coma and death.

Insulin prevents hypo- and hyperglycemia.
Hyperglycemia is high blood glucose. Symptoms are--
Frequent urination
Excessive thirst
Extreme hunger
Unusual weight loss
Increased fatigue
Irritability
Blurry vision
Hypoglycemia is low blood glucose. Symptoms are--
Sweating and palpitations
Pale skin
Hunger - to the extreme
Trembling
Irritability
Anxiety/aggression
Poor concentration
Feelings of faintness/dizziness
Loss of consciousness
Death
So it prevents these sypmtoms by regulating blood sugar, and keeping it in a narrow range.
