Question

Karah, a teenager, rolls her eyes and walks away when tammy, her mother, orders her to clean her room. karah and tammy are using one of the least satisfying approaches to conflict management:

Answer 1

The correct answer is demand-withdrawal pattern.
Tammy is the demander in their relationship - she demands a change, she wants Karah to do something for her (in this case, clean her room). On the other hand, Karah is withdrawing from this demand, not wanting to do what she is told to. This isn't a good approach to solve a conflict.

Answer 2

The correct answer is the demand withdraw pattern. This occurs in one of two patterns between the marital partners by which the other party is seeking change, resolution to an issue or likely to be called the demander whereas the other party is seeking to an end or avoid discussion and likely to be referred to be as the withdrawer.
