    The Id

    Represents the unconscious.

    It is amoral and selfish, ruled by thepleasurepain principle; it is without asense of time, completely illogical, primarilysexual, infantile in its emotional

    development Cannot take no for an answer.

    A baby is pure id.

    The Super-ego

    The Super-ego works in contradiction to theid. The Super-ego strives to act in a socially

    appropriate manner, whereas the id justwants instant self-gratification. The Super-ego controls our sense of right and wrongand guilt. It helps us fit into society by

    getting us to act in socially acceptableways.

    The Ego

    The Ego comprises that organised part ofthe personality structure that includes

    defensive, perceptual, intellectual-cognitive,and executive functions.

    The ego separates what is real. It helps us to

    organize our thoughts and make sense ofthem and the world around us.
