Answer 1

This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:

June and Keith have a disagreement over how to use Keith's yearly bonus money. June is of the opinion that they should save that cash, while Keith thinks they should use it to go on an international trip to Amsterdam. In this scenario, June and Keith have a(n) _____. Group of answer choices

A. value conflict

B. conflict of interest

C. cognitive conflict

D. affective conflict

Answer:

June and Keith have a B. conflict of interest.

Explanation:

Keith and June want to do different things with the money. They cannot do both - saving AND traveling does not seem to be an option. Therefore, they have a conflict of interest, meaning the needs of one are incompatible with the needs of the other. Conflicts of interest take place when a person believes the other person must sacrifice their needs to satisfy his/her own. That is precisely the case we have here. It does not seem they are willing to compromise.
