Conflict handling modes

Consider the statement “conflict can be both good and bad.” Reflect on this statement and describe a time when you witnessed or experienced conflict in your personal or professional life.

Based on your research and experience, answer the following questions:

What are the four basic types of conflict? Describe them.
Which type of conflict did you witness or experience?
What are the five levels of conflict? Describe them. What was the level of conflict in your situation?
Which of the five conflict-handling modes was utilized?
What are the three conflict negotiation models? What are the goals and indicators of success of each? Were any of these models used to resolve the conflict you witnessed or experienced?
Do you agree or disagree that “conflict can be both good and bad”? Give reasons and explain whether the conflict you witnessed was good or bad.
Provide an additional example of both good and bad conflict in a healthcare setting.

Question 2

Using the Online Library or the Internet, research about the following:

Thomas-Kilmann conflict mode instrument (TKI)
Kraybill conflict style inventory (KCSI)

Now, choose one of these conflict style inventories and based on your understanding of the model, complete the following tasks:

Describe your chosen conflict style inventory.
Describe how the conflict style inventory was developed.
Explain the pros and cons of the inventory.

Community-Level Factors

[Pin It]

Researchers who investigate the causes of specific health problems look at a wide range of influences on several different levels. For instance, if researchers were investigating obesity at the individual level, they could examine eating habits and frequency of sedentary activities like TV watching. If the health problems also are population wide, as obesity is, it is important from a public health standpoint to focus on community-level factors such as availability of healthy foods and recreational facilities.

Communities and organizations have personalities and can resist change in a manner similar to how individuals can become set in their ways. Have you ever been part of a group where the social norms created pressure to behave a certain way? One possible strategy for changing behaviors is to address a community or organization rather than individuals. For this you would use theories geared to groups rather than to individuals.

The article by Krug et al. in the Learning Resources discusses violence and health and explores how the causes of violence can be viewed at many different levels. Although violence is commonly thought of as happening between individuals, community-level factors may be adding to the problem:

“The third level explores the community context—i.e., schools, workplaces, and neighborhoods. Risk at this level may be affected by factors such as the existence of a local drug trade, the absence of social networks, and poverty. All these factors have been shown to be important in several types of violence” (Krug et al., 2002, p. 1085).

For this Discussion, consider community level factors that might contribute to injury-related public health problem that is present in a country or a community with these thoughts in mind:

Post 4-5 pages of a description of the injury-related public health problem you selected. Include incidence rates for this problem in the country or community you selected and a description of populations at risk for it. Then, explain which community-level factors might influence increased risk for injury in its population. Identify and briefly describe an organization (e.g., school, workplace) in which violence might be a chronic issue in that country or community

Consider the role of change agents (i.e., a person or group that indirectly or directly facilitates change) as you

1. Explanation how you might implement the public health program in the scenario in a healthcare setting

2. Explanation how you might implement the same program in a community setting

3. Explanation how the implementation would differ based on each setting (a healthcare setting versus a community setting)

4. Explanation of one potential strategy you would use in a healthcare setting to ensure that the public health program achieves the intended outcomes

5. Explain one potential strategy you would use in a community setting to ensure that the public health program achieves the intended outcomes
