One's ability to cope successfully with the problems and stresses which arise in everyday work experiences is a function of a complex set of factors. Some of them stem from the person and others from the environmental situation. We are concerned here with one particular source of stress-role conflicts in industrial organizations. The present study also focuses upon the tensions produced by such conflicts, and some of the methods which are used to cope with them.

48 female college students, selected to be relatively high or low on Rokeach's Dogmatism scale, listened to a series of tape-recorded statements asserting opinions that were either in strong agreement, strong disagreement, or mild disagreement with attitudes common in their group. Changes in galvanic skin responses were measured for each of 12 statements, 4 items representing each agreement condition. GSRs were greater for strong disagreement than strong agreement and for strong agreement than mild disagreement. Analysis of variance of the transformed GSR scores showed significant effects of level of dogmatism and extent of disagreement.
