The Conceptual Framework of Interpersonal Conflict as Integration of 7C Playfulness and Positive Psychotherapy.

This article presents the conceptual framework of interpersonal conflict as an integration of the concept of 7C playfulness and positive psychotherapy. The conflict is based on M. Smith’s three-component attitude structure. The interpersonal conflict as a dynamic process occurring between at least two interrelated parties (individuals and / or groups), is described by cognitions, which make up the sphere of controversy (cognitive component); emotions covered by three possible ways of processing the key conflict (emotional component); behavioral patterns of ludic positions in balance or in their polar manifestations (behavioral component).
