Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFAssertion (A): Task-oriented proactive and assertive behavior is that which is not intended to cause harm to achieve one's goal.
- Task-oriented proactive and assertive behavior should not involve intentionally causing harm to others in order to achieve one's goals.
- It implies taking proactive steps and being assertive without resorting to injurious actions.
This means that statement (A) is correct.
Reason (R): The purpose is to achieve the desired goal, even if harm to another person occurs accidentally or because it is the most efficient way.
- It suggests that achieving the desired goal may involve accidentally or intentionally causing harm to others if it is the most efficient way.
- This reasoning is flawed as it does not align with the principle of ethical behavior or responsible goal attainment.
Thus, reason (R) is incorrect.
In summary, task-oriented proactive and assertive behavior should aim to achieve goals without causing harm intentionally, making assertion (A) true, and reason (R) false.
