In avoidance-avoidance conflicts, a person has to choose between two unappealing options to reach the goal. This type of conflict often creates high levels of stress and anxiety as neither option is desirable. The other options, approach-avoidance and approach-approach, involve choosing between a desirable and undesirable option or between two desirable options respectively. Multiple approach-avoidance conflict involves choosing between multiple options with both pros and cons, making the decision-making process more complex.
