Answer to Question 1

Cooperation occurs when people combine their efforts to reach a common goal. Social exchange appears similar to cooperation, but the motive for working together is different. People who are cooperating do not expect anything in return other than accomplishment of the common goal. In social exchange, one of the helping members expects (or at least hopes for) something in return from the other party for his or her efforts. Conflict involves working against one another. Coercion involves forcing someone else to do something against his or her will. Conformity is acting in a way that others expect.
