For your “Complete” assignment, you are to write a COMPREHENSIVE APA analysis paper to address the questions and statements below. A minimum of three scholarly sources are required, and all sources should be cited and referenced in APA format.
- Discuss the five basic causes of intragroup conflict: competition (winning), resource allocation (sharing), power (controlling), work-related disputes (working), and dislike.
- Discuss the five basic causes of intergroup conflict: competition for scarce resources (realistic group conflict theory), social dominance processes, aggression, norms, and natural selection (evolution).
- How do cultural norms reflect how groups and group members respond to conflict?
- Discuss the interpersonal factors that can cause an initial dispute to intensify into a full-fledge conflict, including positional commitment, reactance, misperceptions, influence tactics (hard and soft), reciprocity, emotional contagion, and coalition formation.
- Discuss the methods that can be used to quell conflict in groups, including negotiation (hard, soft, and integrative), forgiveness and the tit-for-tat strategy, and third-party mediation.
