ID, EGO, SUPER EGO OVERVIEW
Freud’s Theories
Part III: Id, Ego, Superego
• Conflict Model: The self is NOT UNIFIED; it is not a
coherent, singular entity. Not entirely rational, not entirely
in control of yourself.
• There are competing elements within ourselves.
• No way to resolve competing elements – only way to stay
healthy is to not let any one of them “get the upper hand”
or sickness (i.e. neurosis or psychosis) can occur.
Freud’s Theories
Part III: ID, EGO, SUPEREGO
Freud’s conflict model is based on the idea of
the Id, the Ego, and the Superego. These are
the components of the self.
First:
• THE ID: The oldest part of our mind – most
primal, most fundamental, most primitive.
• The Id precedes culture! And is universal.
Freud’s Theories
Part III: ID, EGO, SUPEREGO
• “Id” does NOT stand for
“Identity.”
• Rather, it means “It” – WOW!
• It is irrational, emotional,
demanding…and STRONG
Freud’s Theories
Part III: ID, EGO, SUPEREGO
• The ID: The source for libido (psychic energy, not just
sexual in meaning like today’s connotation)
• Psychic energy fuels our thoughts, memories, sexual
desires, perceptions, etc.
• Psychic energy – fixed amount (like theory of
“matter” – can neither be created nor destroyed)
Freud’s Theories
Part III: ID, EGO, SUPEREGO
• The Id is ruled by The Pleasure
Principle: (I WANT, I WANT, I WANT, I
WANT!!!!!)
• Pleasure Principle: Cares only about
immediate self-gratification; does not care
about deferring, doesn’t care about others.
Freud’s Theories
Part III: ID, EGO, SUPEREGO
• A new baby is all Id. Not born fully human
(controversial) – must successfully navigate the
treacherous path to adulthood.
• A new baby only wants to eat, sleep, urinate,
defecate, be comfortable, and gain sexual pleasure
and wants it all now.
• (Yes, Freud believes we are all born sexual,
“polymorphous perverse” – all areas of body to an
infant are pleasurable BUT: “sexual” is understood as
“sensual”).
Freud’s Theories
Part III: ID, EGO, SUPEREGO
• The Ego: “I”
• Functions with the rational part of the
mind. The Ego develops in the child by
about age 3.
• Child learns that it is often unwise and
there are consequences if s/he cannot
learn to delay her/his gratification.
Freud’s Theories
Part III: ID, EGO, SUPEREGO
• The Ego is ruled by The Reality Principle, the
Ego is pragmatic. “You can’t always get what
you want.”
• The Ego mediates between the Id and the
world. The Ego develops strategies to help the
Id make it until the urge can be satisfied.
• It takes a tremendous amount of psychic
energy to help suppress the Id’s urges.
Freud’s Theories
Part III: ID, EGO, SUPEREGO
• The Ego is in service to the Id, yet it uses some of the
Id’s psychic energy to control the Id by reasonably
satisfying the Id.
• Over time, the Ego becomes pretty good at this and
develops a large repertoire of KSAs to keep the Id
gratified.
• This causes the Ego to become aware of itself as an
entity – now the individual experiences him/herself
as a “self”, not just a big ball of urges.
Freud’s Theories
Part III: ID, EGO, SUPEREGO
• The Superego: “Over-I”
• Last part of the mind to develop (by
about age 5).
• The moral part of the mind (because the
Ego is not necessarily moral).
• Represents societal and parental values.
“Steps In” when Mom or the Cops aren’t
around.
Freud’s Theories
Part III: ID, EGO, SUPEREGO
• Two components to Superego: Ego Ideal and
Conscience. (Don’t confuse with “conscious”)
• Ego Ideal: The rules or standards for what
constitutes good or appropriate behavior.
• Conscience: The rules or standards for what
constitutes bad, immoral, embarrassing
behavior.
Freud’s Theories
Part III: ID, EGO, SUPEREGO
• If, as an adult, your Id is too dominant? (very
self-absorbed, don’t care about others, only
out for yourself)
• If, as an adult, your Ego is too dominant?
(distant, rational, efficient, unemotional, cold)
• If, as an adult, your Superego is too dominant?
(guilt-ridden or sanctimonious).

Notes for Chapter 1-4
• -He lost his Self a thousand times and for days on end he dwelt in
non-being. But although the paths took him away from Self, in
the end they always led back to it.
• Buddha’s First Noble Truth, that life means suffering, is revealed to
Siddhartha while he is still a son of the Brahmins, living in his
father’s house. Ritual and formula govern Siddhartha’s father’s
world. Life in this world revolves around sacrifices and offerings
made at certain times and the performance of established duties
that everyone, even Siddhartha’s father, must take part in. The
father’s world, then, is fixed in the moment and regulated
according to certain accepted guidelines. Nothing will change from
one day to the next. Siddhartha’s father’s request at the end of
this chapter that Siddhartha return home to teach his father if he
is successful is an admission that Siddhartha is right, that the gods
are only objects of veneration and not living companions. The
people in this world suffer from a way of life that was forced on
them, and their strict rituals and schedules stand between them
and the reality they seek.
