Jon recently stopped a conflict with his girlfriend, ana, and said to her, "you don't know how to have a disagreement without losing your temper and swearing! " ana replied, "well at least i want to confront the issues instead of avoiding them! "
jon and ana's exchange is an example of:

a. meta-conflict
b. the content dimension of conflict
c. the relational dimension of conflict
d. pseudo-conflict

A. Meta-conflict

Explanation:

Meta-conflict is about whether or how to engage in conflict. In case of conflict between Jon and Ana, they further tend to engage in conflict rather than ease it off. "You don't know" is the negation of Ana who does not disagree without losing her temper. Ana, on the other hand, is ready to "confront the issue" which means she is prepared to escalate the conflict. Ana does not believe in avoiding issue, the first lesson in easing conflict. Jon accuses Ana and Ana is ready to confront.
