Mr. X teaches University students, heads his Department in the University, is president of the Rotary Club, leads a political party. All these roles of Mr X. together, exemplify the concept of

role-sequence

role-set

multiple-roles

role- congruence

Explanation:

- Mr. X plays various roles at the same time—teacher, head of department, club president, and political leader.

- Option 1: Role-sequence means performing roles in a particular order, one after the other, usually over time (e.g., student ? teacher ? principal). This is not the case here.

- Option 2: Role-set refers to all roles attached to a single social status (e.g., a teacher interacts with students, colleagues, and parents). This is about one status and its associated roles.

- Option 3: Multiple-roles means occupying several roles at the same time from different statuses (like Mr. X does). This fits the scenario best.

- Option 4: Role-congruence is when different roles fit together well without conflict.

Correct Answer: Option 3 — Multiple-roles
