Fred is in a bind: he has a sociology exam in the morning that he needs to study for the evening before at least 3 hours since he hasn t been keeping up with the work and also a commitment to meet with classmates for a presentation in another course, also scheduled for the next morning. Fred decides to go meet his classmates for an hour, leave early, and then only have one hour to study. Fred s situation and the way he has dealt with it illustrates the sociological concept of:

A. role-conflict
B. role-strain
C. status-conflict
D. status-strain

C. status-conflict

Explanation:

Status-conflict is a term used to explain the incompatibility between two types of "status" about an individual, where to meet the needs of a status, the individual harms the need of the other, as establishing a conformity between the two would be very difficult. In summary, the armadillo-conflict can be observed when two factors pull the same individual in opposite directions. This can be seen in the question above, where Fred needs to spend the night studying, but needs to meet with his friends.

Finding friends prevents Fred from studying for a long time, spending the night studying prevents Fred from finding friends. That is, Fred is between two statuses, where the execution of one interferes in the execution of the other. This is status-conflict.
