“…This study used basic statistical techniques and there were very few details on the tool used. Davis (1974) conducted a small study of intrarole conflict (measured using a purpose‐designed questionnaire) and job satisfaction (using a validated tool). Seventeen psychiatric nurses completed these measures and the results did not support the hypothesis that the higher the intrarole conflict, the lower the job satisfaction.…”

“…That is, Davis (1974) and King, Beehr, and King's (1986) item sets were specific to the role of hospital nurse, Dougherty and Pritchard's (1985) "product-based measures" (p. 141) were specific to the role of attorney, and Toffler's task indexes were specific to the role of physicians' assistant.…”

This article appraises the construct validity of role conflict and role ambiguity in organizational psychology research by tracing the process of validation from initial theory introduction to the present. Although the theoretical bases for the constructs were relatively well explicated, some conceptual shortcomings have carried over into empirical work. There are problems with the content validity of measures, a lack of convergent and discriminant evidence, and inattention to the full nomological network of hypothesized relationships. Recommendations for future role-conflict and role-ambiguity research are offered.

“…Providing management with a clear understanding of the role of the AT and the demands and expectations placed on ATs may improve the efficiency of the workplace. 3,8,30 Communicating with staff is also a strategy for alleviating strain. In nursing, communication was essential in reducing the amount of perceived stress due to role conflict, role overload, and role ambiguity.…”

Context: Athletic trainers (ATs) employed in the professional sport setting (ATPSSs) demonstrate moderate to high degrees of role strain. The experiences and perceptions of these ATs provide insight regarding the sources of role strain as well as ways to reduce it. Objective: To investigate the perceptions of ATPSSs regarding role strain. Design: Qualitative study. Patients or Other Participants: From a purposeful sampling of 389 ATs employed in the 5 major sport leagues (Major League Baseball, Major League Soccer, National Basketball Association, National Football League, and National Hockey League), we identified 34 participants willing to participate in phone interviews. Data Collection and Procedures: Semistructured phone interviews. Inductive data analysis was based on a grounded theory approach. Credibility was addressed with member checks and a peer debriefing. Results: Three first-order emergent themes materialized from the data: (1) sources of role strain, (2) consequences of role strain, and (3) strategies to alleviate role strain in ATPSSs. Participants described the antecedents of role strain as emerging from the competing expectations of the professional athlete, the organization, and the sport league. Consequences of role strain included effects on direct patient care and work-life imbalance. Improving organizational factors such as inadequate staffing and poor communication within the organization were strategies described by participants for decreasing role strain in the professional sports setting. Conclusions: Our participants discussed experiencing role strain, which was facilitated by trying to meet the competing demands placed on them with limited time and often with an inadequate support staff. Participant role strain affected health care and contributed to work-life imbalance. Participants described changing the organizational factors that contributed to role strain as a strategy to alleviate the perceived stress.
