Marquis has two residents working with him while they are in training. They are all treating a patient who has a history of bronchitis. The woman is now hospitalized because her chest has begun to show signs of fluid. One resident says that because of her history, she must be started on a broad-spectrum antibiotic. The other disagrees, saying that broad spectrum antibiotics should only be used if all else fails. Marquis sees that both make good points. He suggests that they try the traditional antibiotic for 24 hours. Then, if there is no marked improvement, they can switch the patient to a broad-spectrum drug. What approach to conflict has Marquis taken in this situation?
a


de-emphasis
b


retreat
c


rule enforcement
d


bargaining
