Answer:

The correct answer is "Role Conflict".

Explanation:

Role conflict can be understood as the distress experienced when a person is having problems complying with the different demands that her/his multiple roles are representing.

For instance, role conflict can occur when a person is trying to comply with the responsibilities they had in different life areas:

James is a 44 year old clinician who has to perform surgery at 11 and then he has to go to his 18 year old graduation at 12pm and he has to do grocery at 1pm before going back to his work at 2pm. The distress he experiences is because he doesn't feel able to comply with all the responsabilities he has.

In this particular case, Vivian is experiecing Role conflict because she feels overwhelmed by all the demands that her multiple roles represent.
