Superego
In contrast to Id, the superego is
conceptualized as the individuals internal
expression of societys moral and ethical
code of conduct. The superegos role is to
see that the individual satisfies needs in a
a socially acceptable fashion. Thus, the
superego is a kind of brake that restrains
or inhibits the impulsive forces of the id.
Ego
The ego is the individuals conscious
control. It functions as an internal monitor
that attempts to balance the impulsive
demands of the id and the sociocultural
constraints of the superego.
Freud emphasized that an individuals
personality is formed as he or she passes
through a number of distinct stages of
infant and childhood development.
