Abstract

Relational goal is a fundamental antecedent to interpersonal conflict management. However, previous research have failed to clarify how relational goal influences conflict strategies. Some confirmed positive relationships between relational goal and integration which is an effective way to solve interpersonal conflict, and some reported negative relationships between these variables. The present study aimed at resolving this inconsistency based on approach-avoidance goal orientation. Approach-based relational goal was predicted to promote integration and domination, while avoidance-based relational goal was predicted to promote obligation and avoidance. Results supported these hypotheses. In addition, intimacy and status was expected to be social context indices influencing the choice of conflict management. Approach-based relational goal mediated positive relationships between intimacy and integration. Status had no effects on relational goals. The role of feedback expectation for conflict management decision was discussed.<br>
