• TRUE

• FALSE

Interventions may never be imposed on negotiators; negotiators themselves must request all forms of third-party intervention.

• TRUE

• FALSE

Even if the relationship between the parties is so damaged that future exchanges would be

highly problematic, third parties may enable the negotiating parties to reduce hostility levels

and achieve some closure on the key issues.

• TRUE

• FALSE

The involvement of third parties signals that the negotiation process has stalled.

• TRUE

• FALSE

• FALSE

Failure to use third-party intervention when appropriate is just as wasteful and damaging to the ultimate negotiation process as using the wrong intervention method.

• TRUE

• FALSE

Binding arbitration requires the parties to comply with the decision, either by law or by

precedent within that sphere of arbitral practice.

• TRUE

• FALSE

If negotiators anticipate that the arbitrator will split the difference, then it is in their best interest

to maintain an extreme, hard-line position because difference splitting is more likely to result in

the hard-liner's favor.

• TRUE

• FALSE

The narcotic effect states that as the frequency of arbitration increases, disenchantment with

the adequacy and fairness of the process develops and the parties may resort to other means

to resolve their disputes.

• TRUE

• FALSE

Commitment to a given solution and willingness to implement it is significantly less when

group members participate in developing that solution than when it is imposed by a single

member.

• TRUE

• FALSE
