Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Janet is experiencing role strain, which is the tension and stress that comes from the competing demands of a single role. In this case, her roles as a student in multiple classes and as a advisee are causing her stress and pressure to balance all of her responsibilities. Role conflict is when the demands of multiple roles conflict with each other, which is not the case here. Resocialization and status pressure also do not apply to this situation.
