Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Step 1: Recall Lewin’s typology.
• Approach–Approach: torn between two desirable goals (e.g., scholarship at College X {or} College Y).
• Avoidance–Avoidance: forced to choose the lesser of two evils (e.g., pay a fine {or} attend detention).
• Approach–Avoidance: the same goal has both attraction and repulsion (e.g., high-pay job with toxic culture).
Step 2: Conclude. All three are recognized primary conflict types; hence “All of these.” $$ \boxed{\text{Option D}} $$
