This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:
Ken wants to go to law school because he believes being a lawyer will bring him prestige and a good income. However, he is not sure he should attend because he is very concerned about the hard work law school will involve and the money it will cost. Ken is faced with a(n) ______ conflict.
A) approach-approach
B) avoidance-avoidance
C) approach-avoidance
D) double approach-avoidance
Answer:
Ken is faced with a(n) C) approach-avoidance conflict.
Explanation:
Ken is experiencing an approach-avoidance conflict. In psychology, this type of conflict is described as arising when a goal or event has both positive and negative aspects to it. Those aspects make the goal appealing and unappealing at the same time, leading a person to want to approach and to avoid it simultaneously. Ken's situation is an example of that. Even though attending law school is appealing in the sense that it will bring him the prestige he desires, it is unappealing due to all the hard work it involves.
