Conflict is one of the basic phenomenon in our lives. Conflict affects our emotions and behaviour almost every day. In psychology conflict can be defined as negative emotional state caused by having to choose between two or more incompatible goals or impulses. Conflict involves two or more opposing forces. There are two basic types of conflicts and I would like to write shortly about each other.
One of the most known type of conflict is psychological or internal conflict. This type of conflict may occur just in one persons mind when opposite thoughts are "fighting" inside his head. S. Freud said that in this type unconscious id are battling with superego. According to S. Freud our personalities is always on this type of conflict. Second type of conflict is known as social conflict which occurs in two or more people. Interpersonal conflict occurs when two individuals are conflicting about certain topic (for example, mother and daughter are conflicting about daughter grades in school). Intergroup struggles occur then two groups are arguing. The most know example could be The first world war. Individual opposing a group conflict occurs then one people disagree with all group opinion or all group disagree with one people opinion. The good example it could be then teacher is arguing with her schoolchilds about date of the test. Intragroup conflicts occurs then members of group are all against each other on a task. So, there are two basic types of conflict known as social and psychological conflict and no one knows which type occurs more often.
What reasons for conflict are? I think it could be very wide answer to this question because people sometimes argue even if there are no serious reasons for that. Some conflicts are caused by primary reasons such as a lack of water, different perceptions, values and interests. Also, conflicts could be a consequence of one people bad mood and it can affect sour conversation with another people. In fact, most conflicts are caused by teenagers and their parents disagreements in one certain subject. All in all, it is hard to say the main reason for conflict because we are all different and everyone has his own opinion about certain thing so there are million reasons why people argue.
Many people think that conflicts just separate people from each other and has no benefits. That's not true. As all phenomenons conflict has its own advantages and disadvantages. Firstly, conflict enables a person to become aware of problems in relationship. Secondary, it stimulates interest and curiosity. Thirdly, conflict causes decision to be made more carefully. Also, it promotes self-knowledge. So conflict is very nessesary everyday phenomenon without we couldn't fulfill our personality.
On the other hand, conflict can arise in all aspects - both personal and professional. One of the conflict disadvantage - decreased productivity - can have serious consequences for a business. The stresses of unresolved problems could affect person's ability to work. Also, unresolved conflicts can lead to low morale in business or another types of organizations. Moreover, conflicts can generate feelings of apathy. If people think that problem cannot be solved, they might just given up on it. Also, there are more others disadvantages of conflicts but they all frequently cause stresses and it could lead to severe heart diseases.
All in all, conflict has its own advantages and disadvantages, sometimes it could bring benefits, but everyone could be more emphatic and try to create a perfect relationships between each other.
