Conflict Management Strategies - Quiz

    Not paying attention to the conflict and not taking any action to resolve it

    • Avoiding

    • Collaborating

    • Compromising

    Correct Answer
    A. Avoiding
    Explanation
    Avoiding is the correct answer because it refers to the act of not paying attention to the conflict and not taking any action to resolve it. When someone avoids a conflict, they may ignore it, pretend it doesn't exist, or simply choose not to engage in any discussions or actions to address it. This approach may be used when the individual wants to maintain peace, avoid confrontation, or believes that the conflict will resolve itself over time.

    • Forcing

    • Compromising

    • Accommodating

    Correct Answer
    A. Accommodating
    Explanation
    Accommodating refers to a conflict resolution style where one party allows the other party to satisfy their concerns while neglecting their own. In this approach, individuals prioritize maintaining harmony and preserving relationships over asserting their own needs or desires. It involves being flexible, understanding, and willing to make concessions to reach a resolution that satisfies the other party. This style encourages cooperation and can be effective in situations where preserving relationships is important or when one party has less power or interest in the conflict.

    • Taunting

    • Collaborative

    • Forcing

    Correct Answer
    A. Forcing
    Explanation
    Forcing refers to the act of using one's formal authority or power to resolve a conflict, disregarding the concerns of the other party involved. This approach involves imposing one's own interests and decisions onto the other party, often without seeking their input or collaboration. It can be seen as a more aggressive and dominant approach to conflict resolution, where one party seeks to assert their control and satisfy their own concerns without considering the needs or perspectives of the other party.

    • Accommodating

    • Compromising

    • Collaborative

    Correct Answer
    A. Compromising
    Explanation
    Compromising refers to the act of finding a solution that may not fully satisfy both parties involved in a conflict, but is acceptable to some extent for both. It involves making concessions and finding a middle ground where both parties are willing to give up certain demands in order to reach an agreement. This approach aims to maintain harmony and avoid further escalation of the conflict by finding a mutually agreeable solution.
