Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Other significant roles can take the place of the role of an employed worker. The fewer roles one has, the greater the impact of retirement. Finances, health, and family are important, but not as significant to the self-image as having other satisfying roles.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
The father who comes to work to advise his son is the most at risk for role conflict problems, because he has not completely given up his role as owner. This will conflict with his role as a father.
