Social Structure : Stratification And Social Process In Society
Question
What do you mean by role-strain and role-conflict ? Give suitable examples.
Solution
1. Meaning Sometimes people find it difficult to meet the demands associated with a role. When conflicting demands are made into a role, an individual performing the role may undergo role-strain.
2. Example : For instance, a Sapanch of the village may be asked to take a decision in a case where his family members are vis-a-vis other villagers involved.
The demands from these two sets (or groups) of people are in direct conflict. Sometimes, performance of one-role may be in conflict with another role. This situation is called as role-conflict.
