TYPES OF CONFLICT
Conflicts can be of different
types as described below:

and positive or negative. Destructive
conflicts are also known as
dysfunctional conflicti
On the basis of Sharing by Groups:
Conflicts may be Distributive and
Integrative. Distributive conflict is
approached as a distribution of a fixed
amount of positive outcomes or resources,

the other losing, even if they do win some
concessions.
On the other hand, integrative –
Groups utilizing the integrative model
see conflict as a chance to integrate
the needs and concerns of both
groups and make the best outcome
possible. This type of conflict has a
greater emphasis on compromise
than the distributive conflict. It has
been found that the integrative conflict
results in consistently better task
related outcomes than the distributive
conflict.
On the basis of Strategy:
Conflicts may be competitive and
cooperative.
