Use this background section to understand when the tool fits, how practitioners use it, and what to consider before sharing it with clients.

Behavior and Recurrence

The profile supports recurring behavior entries and can mark when there is not enough evidence to treat a single incident as a pattern.

Repair Attempts Included

Repair attempts can be captured alongside escalation, avoidance, or blaming so the profile does not only record problem behaviors.

Limitations

The product does not create standardized scores, personality labels, automatic behavior labels, blame judgments, or conflict-resolution curricula.

Is this a client communication quiz?

No. It is a practitioner-entered conflict-pattern profile based on observation and reports.

Does the tool score conflict style?

No. The product organizes behaviors and evidence but does not generate standardized conflict style scores.

Can repair attempts be recorded?

Yes. Repair attempts are supported as recurring conflict behaviors where observed or reported.

Can different subsystems have different profiles?

Yes. The scope setting can be family-wide, subsystem-specific, or member-specific.
