Answer to Question 2

Answer: C
Explanation: A) Incorrect. Distributive negotiations involve dividing up fixed resources, not expanding the pie. The opposite of this statement is correct.
B) Incorrect. Distributive negotiations might involve dividing resources fairly, but integrative negotiations actually do involve consulting all parties' personal needs.
C) Correct. Distributive strategies are those that seek to find a fair balance among fixed resources or opportunities. Consequently, compromise is the likely outcome of a distributive strategy. Integrative negotiations, on the other hand, seek win-win solutions that might actually expand the pool of available resources and opportunities.
D) Incorrect. Distributive strategies are most consistent with compromising, while integrative strategies are most consistent with collaborating.
