[All aPHRi Questions]

Which of the following methods would allow an organization to identify whether conflict is a cause of high turnover in one of its departments? (Select TWO options.)

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A, C

Comprehensive and Detailed in Depth

To identify whether conflict is causing high turnover, the organization needs methods that directly collect employee feedback about workplace dynamics.

Option A (Survey): Correct, as surveys can ask targeted questions about conflict and its impact on employees' decisions to leave.

Option B (Screening): Screening is part of recruitment, not suitable for assessing turnover causes.

Option C (Focus group): Correct, as focus groups allow for in-depth discussions with employees to explore conflict as a turnover factor.

Option D (Needs analysis): This identifies training gaps, not conflict-related turnover causes.

Option E (Performance appraisal): This evaluates individual performance, not department-wide conflict issues.

Needs analysis seems a bit off for this question.

Needs analysis seems more about identifying skills gaps, so I don't think it fits here. I’d go with surveys and focus groups.

I feel like screening might not really address the issue of conflict directly, but I'm uncertain about that.

I think surveys could definitely help gauge employee sentiment about conflict, but I'm not sure if focus groups would be the best choice.

This is a tricky one. I'm leaning towards Survey and Performance appraisal - the performance reviews could potentially uncover any underlying conflicts. But I'm not 100% confident in that. Guess I'll have to weigh the options carefully.

Okay, let's see. I think Survey is a definite choice, as that would allow you to directly ask employees about any conflicts they're experiencing. Focus group could also work to get more in-depth insights. I'm a bit unsure about the other options, but I'll make my best guess.

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. I'm thinking Survey and Needs analysis might be the best options, but I'm a bit confused on how Needs analysis would apply here. I'll have to think it through more carefully.

This seems like a straightforward question. I'd go with Survey and Focus group - those seem like the most obvious ways to gather information on potential causes of high turnover.

I agree with Elvera. Survey can gather quantitative data while focus group can provide qualitative insights.

Performance appraisal? Really? That's not going to give you any insights into the root causes of high turnover. What a waste of time.

Survey and focus group are definitely the way to go. You need to get direct feedback from the employees to really understand what's going on.
