instincts.

fantasy oriented.
Ego - ANSWER-Our sense of self. And acts as an intermediary between the Id and
the world by using ego defense mechanisms, such as repression, denial, and
rationalization.
Engages in secondary process thinking, which is rational, REALISTIC, and
orientated towards PROBLEM SOLVING.
Superego - ANSWER-Assigned to those processes that Freud referred to as our
conscience (our sense of what is right or wrong) and is greatly influenced by our
parents' or caregivers' MORALS and ETHICAL stances.

forbids, such as sex and aggression. It also has the function of persuading the ego to
turn to moralistic goals rather than simply realistic ones and to strive for perfection.
