Download or read book Conflict Escalation and Decision Making written by Ludger Haller and published by Peter Lang Pub Incorporated. This book was released on 2001 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book constructs a new scientific explanation of the decision making process underlying conflict escalation. It draws on the literature in political science and psychology. First, the structural variables embedding the decision making process in a conflict are extracted from empirical macro-level studies on peace and war. Then, the psychological triggers of escalation underlying the decision making process in a conflict are examined. Four triggers, are identified: Frustration, threats, norm violations and sunk costs. For each of these triggers, the theoretical background, the empirical findings and their implications on conflict escalation are examined. Finally, the psychological triggers of conflict escalation and the structural variables of conflict escalation are discussed in relation to the inherent dynamics of escalation processes.

Book Synopsis Decision Making and Conflict by : Dewey W. Todd
Download or read book Decision Making and Conflict written by Dewey W. Todd and published by VDM Publishing. This book was released on 2008 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conflict is inevitable in dynamic group decision making, however, it is generally not managed strategically. Instead, individuals' natural conflict styles are allowed to exist and evolve with little or no understanding of how conflict escalation affects discussion and resolution. Also, Motivation is generally not used to affect how conflict might be used constructively to overcome group decision making pathologies. This study examines two areas. One, how does motivation (either negative or positive) affect an individual's natural tendency to be assertive or unassertive and cooperative or uncooperative in a group setting? And, two, how does the escalation of conflict affect these same preferences? A new Psychometric instrument called the Todd-Cambridge Instrument (for measuring the traditional Five-Zone Preferred Conflict Handling Mode, or PCHM) is applied within a seldom used, but effective setting - by introducing vignettes to influence in a sudden fashion what has traditionally been viewed as a static measurement. Although targeted at researchers in group decision making, this study will also prove valuable for researchers in innovative survey techniques.

Book Synopsis Escalation in Decision-Making by : Ms Julia Hodgson
Download or read book Escalation in Decision-Making written by Ms Julia Hodgson and published by Gower Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2012-08-28 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When a venture seems to be faltering, do you persist and hope that things will get better or do you cut your losses? This may be one of the most important decisions business or project owners may ever have to make. Persistence involves the risk of throwing good money (or resources) after bad, but owners may feel they have too much invested to quit now. Escalation in Decision-Making reveals why social scientists believe that owners may not respond rationally to such predicaments. Instead of exiting when the odds are clearly stacked against them, they re-invest and end up compounding their losses – a phenomenon known as escalation of commitment. The authors, Helga Drummond and Julia Hodgson, also introduce the concept of entrapment, a variation whereby decision-makers passively drift towards insolvency as the cost of changing direction becomes too high. So: · what drives escalation? · why do some owners quit whilst others persist until the bailiffs arrive? · what can we learn from owners' mistakes? · what makes newcomers believe they can succeed where others are conspicuously failing? These questions of behavioural economics are answered using a narrative that analyses decisions made by market traders facing economic extinction. Many highly successful entrepreneurs started their careers in markets - it was once an almost guaranteed route to prosperity - now market traders are struggling to survive. Although the market traders featured are small entrepreneurs, the ubiquitous phenomenon of escalation at the heart of these stories is widely relevant to practitioners such as project managers in large organizations and to those responsible for managing risk in many situations. Rich in case studies involving real business decisions and dilemmas, Escalation in Decision-Making provides an accessible introduction to the application of theory against a background of growing interest in behavioural economics, now being researched and taught in universities and increasingly attracting the attention of business practitioners.
