Answer to Question 1

a

Answer to Question 2

We experience role conflict when fulfilling the expectations of one of our roles conflicts with meeting the expectations of another. We experience discomfort, for example, when our role as a son or a daughter conflicts with fulfilling the expectations of a friend. As a son or daughter, we would want to fulfill our parents' expectation that we come home for a grandmother's birthday. But, if our best friend needed our help during a move to a new apartment, which role are we supposed to fulfill? We are damned if we do and damned if we don't. Severe instances of role conflict can create enough psychological stress to put some of us on the therapist's couch or push others into escape with drugs or alcohol.
