Answer to Question 1

C
Explanation: C) On entry into the organization, the new member enters the encounter stage and confronts the possibility that expectations, about the job, co-workers, the boss, and the organization in general, may differ from reality. If there occurs a mismatch between the expectations of the new member and the reality then the new member may become disillusioned enough with the reality to resign.

Answer to Question 2

C
Explanation: C) Integrative bargaining involves high information sharing and attempts to create a win-win solution. In terms of intraorganizational behavior, all things being equal, integrative bargaining is preferable to distributive bargaining because the former builds long-term relationships.
