The dual concerns model to describe the basic orientation that people take toward conflict. This model proposes that individuals in conflict have two levels of related concerns: a level of concern for their own outcomes, and a level of concern for the other's outcomes. Savage, Blair, and Sorenson propose a similar model for the choice of a negotiation strategy.According to this model, a negotiator's unilateral choice of strategy is reflected in the answers to two simple questions: (1) How much concern does the actor have for achieving the substantive outcomes at stake in this negotiation (substantive goals)? and (2) How much concern does the negotiator have for the current and future quality of the relationship with the other party (relationship goals)?
