Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

1. Thinking that one does a good job in a role is not an example of role conflict.
2. Liking one role better than the other is not a symptom of role conflict.
3. Inter-role conflict occurs when the differences between being a staff nurse (doing it myself) and a charge nurse (direct someone else to do the task) become stressful. The nurse suffering from this conflict may well "switch over" to the other role in the interest of getting a task done quickly or well.
4. Having difficulty understanding a report is not a symptom of role conflict.
