Super-ego(超我）
The Super-ego works in contradiction to the
id. The Super-ego strives to act in a socially appropriate manner, whereas the id just Super-ego 即使一种道德 wants instant self-gratification(自我满足）. 规范，要求个人尽力去 The Super-ego controls our sense of right 满足父母及社会的标准。 and wrong and guilt. It helps us fit into society by getting us to act in socially acceptable ways.
The mind is like an iceberg, it floats with oneseventh of its bulk above water" (S. Freud)
Several corollaries of Freudian theory
Freud abandoned the idea of the system unconscious, replacing it with the concept of the ego, superego, and id. Throughout his career, however, he retained the descriptive and dynamic conceptions of the unconscious. The id is the reservoir of libido, the primary source of all psychic energy. It fulfills the primordial(原始的) life principle, which Freud considers to be the pleasure principle.

Байду номын сангаасThe foundation of Freud’s contribution to modern psychology is his emphasis on the unconscious aspects of the human psyche.
ID- unconconscious part of the mind
Freud’s Theories
Like iceberg, the human mind is structured so that its great weight and density lie beneath the surface (below the level of consciousness)
Ego is the rational governing agents of the psyche. Though the ego lacks the strong vitality of the id, it regulates the instinctual drives of the id so that they may be released in nondestructive behavioral patterns.
libido
Libido refers to a person's
sex drive or desire for sexual activity. The desire for sex is an aspect of a person's sexuality, but varies enormously from one person to another, and it also varies depending on circumstances at a particular time.
Ego(自我）
The ego acts according to the reality
principle. It seeks to please the id’s drive in realistic ways. In Freud’s theory, the ego mediates among the id, the super-ego and the external world. Its task is to find a balance between primitive drives and reality.
The ID and the SUPEREGO are in constant conflict. Your DRIVE tells you to do one thing , while SOCIETY tells you to do something else.
Sigmund Freud, the founder of psychoanalysis, compared the human mind to an iceberg. The tip above the water represents consciousness, and the vast region below the surface symbolizes the unconscious mind. Of Freud’s three basic personality structures—id, ego, and superego— only the id is totally unconscious.
Freud’s assignment of the mental processes to three psyche zones: the id, the ego, and the superego.
Id(本我）

The other regulating agent, that which primarily functions to protect society, is the superego.
