i. Intra-sender Conflict: when a role sender requires arole receiver (i.e., the focal person) to performcontradictory or inconsistent roles . For example, a rolesender may request the role receiver to do something that cannot be donewithout violating a rule , yet the role sender attempts to enforce the rule.
ii. Inter-sender Conflict: A role receiver experiencesthis type of conflict if the role behavior demanded byone role sender is unlike with the role behaviordemanded by another role sender(s).

spend more time with his or her children to be an ideal parent.

values , and professional behavior .For example, intra-role conflict occurs when an organizational member isrequired to enter into price-fixing conspiracies, which are not congruent withhis or her ethical standards.
