Role overload occurs when an individual is given more activities, tasks, or responsibilities than they can handle comfortably or effectively, leading to stress and possible burnout. Interrole conflict occurs when the expectations or demands of different roles conflict with each other. Role strain occurs when an individual struggles to meet the expectations of one specific role due to internal or external factors. There is no such thing as "full-time conflict."
