Bacal & Associates - Helping People Solve Conflict for Two Decades
Conflict
Research And Academic Papers: In this section we offer academic and
research papers that highlight conflict management. Specifically how gender
and culture may play a role in the conflict resolution process, a discussion
of conflict management in community organizations, and how marital discord
can affect a child's chance of marital harmony. Different approaches for
conflict management are also offered for your edification. Three models
of conflict resolution are also detailed.

- Gordon Allport (1960) once noted that there are many different approaches to conflict resolution, but that few empirical studies have been conducted to examine their effectiveness. This experiment was designed to evaluate the distributive bargaining, integrative bargaining, and interactive problem solving models of conflict resolution, using intergroup expectancies and attitudes as dependent measures. Jewish and Arab students were paired into mixed-ethnicity dyads to discuss the Israeli-Palestinian dispute about Jerusalem according to one of the three models.

- This paper applies game theory to conflicts between organizations and publics. Noncooperative games -- the duel (Chernobyl), the game of tag (Ford Pinto), and the escalation game (A. H. Robins' Dalkon Shield) -- are contrasted with a cooperative bargaining game between an organization and its publics (Procter & Gamble's Rely tampon recall).
