In 1923, Freud introduced new terms to describe
the division between the conscious and unconscious:
id, ego, and super ego. He thought these
terms offered a more compelling description of the
dynamic relations between the conscious and the
unconscious. |

The
id (fully unconscious) contains the drives
and those things repressed by consciousness; the
ego (mostly conscious) deals with external
reality; and the super ego (partly conscious)
is the conscience or the internal moral judge. |
