The Effects Of Extroversion On Conflict Resolution In Student Teams: A Cross-Cultural Comparison

Abstract

This paper reports the results of a cross-cultural investigation of the role of Extroversion in determining the conflict resolution styles of business students in the United States and the Republic of Armenia.  PLS modeling showed that Extroversion was associated with the Dominating style among US students and with the Compromising and Obliging styles among Armenian students.  Extroversion was associated with the Integrating style in both cultures.  Findings are discussed along with their implications for cross-cultural research.
