which leadership style results in a
discounted, hostile, but productive group
in the classroom?

authoritarian

authoritative

uninvolved

laissez - faire

Explanation:

To determine the correct leadership style, we analyze each option:

• Authoritarian: This style is characterized by strict control, high demands, and little flexibility. Groups under authoritarian leadership may be productive due to clear directives but often feel discounted and hostile because of the lack of autonomy and democratic input.
• Authoritative: This style is more balanced, combining high expectations with support and autonomy. Groups here tend to be more engaged and less hostile.
• Uninvolved: Leaders with this style are detached, providing little guidance or support. Groups here are likely unproductive and may not be hostile in the same structured way as under authoritarian, but also not productive.
• Laissez - faire: Leaders are very hands - off, giving maximum autonomy. Groups may lack direction and are not typically productive in a structured, hostile - yet - productive way.

So, the leadership style that results in a discounted, hostile, but productive group is Authoritarian.

Answer:

A. Authoritarian
