Great! :) Danny and Sam's style of conflict management is definitely NOT cooperative. They are fighting for Pete sake! Now we need to ask ourselves, is fighting constructive? Nope! It's not! So now we are left with two options: confrontational or non-confrontational. So, all we need to know is what Confrontational means. It means "tending to deal with situations in an aggressive way; hostile or argumentative." So, we know now that the answer is A- confrontational. Hope this helps! :)

OpenStudy (dantefemboy):

Yes. Makes sense. Hmm cool.
