conflict resolution styles

    Greetings:

    I am going to conduct a study where I will measure individual
    differences in conflict resolution styles. I'd like to use the typical
    five-style model--avoiding, competing, collaborative, compromising,
    and accommodating. I've used the Thomas-Kilmann Conflict MODE in the
    past. I see there's also the Rahim Organizational Conflict Inventory,
    as well.

    Does anyone know what the standard/most-used questionnaire for
    measuring conflict resolution styles is, and/or if there are any
    articles arguing the relative merits and weaknesses of those two (and
    other) scales?

    Thank you very much for your assistance. I will summarize the replies
    and send them out to the group.

    Best regards,

    Susannah Paletz
