Freud's Id, Ego And Superego Explained
ฝัง

- According to Sigmund Freud's psychoanalytic theory the human personality is made up of three parts: the id, the ego and the superego.
🔵 THE ID: The id is present at birth and is the seat of all emotional impulses and desires especially your sexual and aggressive urges. Freud viewed the id as a cauldron full of seething emotions which knows no judgments or values. The id is illogical, amoral and driven to satisfy instinctual needs. The id obeys what Freud called the pleasure principle.
🔵 THE EGO: The ego strives to manage the id's desires in realistic and socially appropriate ways. It’s the executive that governs, controls and regulates the personality. The ego operates from the reality principle, it governs reason, common sense and logic. Freud believed that good mental health depends on the strength and flexibility of the ego. Therefore the goal of psychological therapy is the strengthen the ego.
🔵 THE SUPEREGO: The superego contains the rules and standards you absorbed from your parents, culture, teachers, religion and society. The function of the superego is to contain the demands of the id though moral influence on the ego. The morality principle is the basis of the superego. It’s very focussed on what is good or bad and right or wrong. It represents the traditional values and ideals of society as they are handed down from parents to children. If a strong moral code is not sufficiently sustained then guilt is produced by the superego.
