sidestick - different inputs

hi! .... something i always wanted to know: what happens if in an airbus-cockpit both pilots give different inputs to their sidesticks. e.g. due to avoid a collision one is pulling and simultanously the other is pushing the stick.
do the computers give priority to capt.´s or pf´s stick or does the plane execute a mixture of both inputs (as someone explained to me -but he was actually flying b737- and i can´t really believe it)?
