Question

Ann says to her partner, "I have been keeping the house clean all week, when are you going to pitch in and help?" This is an example of the

A) exchange approach.
B) communal approach.
C) individualistic approach.
D) passionate love.
E) companionate love.?

Please explain. Thank you!

Answer 1

The correct answer is option B

Explanation : Communal approach can be defined as the approach used in any unit of organisation where the focus is on the common good and a task is responsibility of the entire team, in this case the relationship. Individualistic approach holds only a single person responsible for the given task. Exchange approach is when a work or task is done in exchange of something else. Passionate and companionate love isnt applicable here as the point of discussion is task.

Thus in the above case Ann asked her partner to help her as she has been doing the cleaning all week. This shows a communal approach as she isnt exchanging the same for something else and believes that it is the respinsibility of both her and her partner
