My Styles Think of two different contexts (A and B) where you have a conflict, a disagreement, an argument, or a disappointment with someone. An example might be a work associate (situation A) and someone you live with (situation B). Then, according to the following scale, fill in your scores for situation A and situation B. For each question, you will have two scores. For example, the scores for situation A and situation B in Question 1could be as follows: 1. 2 | 4 Situation A: Work Associate Situation B: My Little Sister 1 = Never 2 = Seldom 3 = Sometimes 4 = Often 5 = Always Situation A | Situation B 1. _1_|_3_ I avoid being put on the spot; I keep conflicts to myself. 2. _1_|_4_ I use my influence to get my ideas accepted. 3. _2_|_4_ I usually try to split the power difference in order to resolve an issue. 4. _4_|_4_ I generally try to satisfy the other person’s needs. 5. _3_|_5_ I try to investigate an issue to find a solution acceptable to both of us. 6. _1_|_1_ I usually avoid open discussions of my differences with the other person. 7. _2_|_4_ I use my authority to make a decision in my favor. 8. _4_|_5_ I try to find a middle course to resolve an impasse. 9. _2_|_3_ I usually accommodate the other person’s wishes. 10. _3_|_3_ I try to integrate my ideas with the other person’s ideas to come up with a decision together. 11. _2_|_1_ I try to avoid any disagreement with the other person. 12. _2_|_4_ I use my expertise to make a decision that favors me. 13. _1_|_3_ I propose a middle ground for breaking any deadlocks in our relationship. 14. _1_|_2_ I give in to the other person’s wishes. 15. _3_|_4_ I try to work with the other person to find solutions which satisfy both our expectations. 16. _2_|_3_ I try to keep my disagreement to myself in order to avoid hard feelings. 17. _4_|_4_ I generally pursue my side of an issue. 18. _3_|_3_ I negotiate with the other person to reach a compromise. 19. _2_|_3_ I often go with the other person’s suggestions. 20. _3_|_4_ I exchange accurate information with the other person so that we can solve a problem together. 21. _5_|_5_ I try to avoid unpleasant exchanges with the other person. 22. _4_|_4_ I sometimes use my power to win. 23. _1_|_4_ I use a give-and-take policy so that we can reach a compromise. 24. _2_|_3_ I try to satisfy the other person’s expectations. 25. _4_|_5_ I try to bring all our concerns out in the open so that the issues can be resolved.
