unconscious part of the mind.

Freudian Theory of Personality Three Parts of the
Mind Aspects of mind
which houses our thoughts and cognitive activities
3 parts: the conscious, the preconscious, the unconscious
![Page 4: 04 psychoanalytical freud](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081412/5452b4a0af795962368b5219/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
The Conscious Contains thoughts of
which you are currently aware
Constantly changing as new thoughts enter the mind and others pass out of awareness

The Preconscious Stores all the
thoughts you could easily bring into consciousness if you wanted to.
E.g. what you ate for breakfast, who your kindergarten teacher was, etc.

The Unconscious According to Freud, vast
majority of our thoughts are in the unconscious
No immediate access to Cannot bring into
consciousness except under certain extreme situations.
Responsible for much of our everyday behaviour.

Three parts of the Personality In Freud’s view, the human personality could be
divided into three parts: Id, ego and superego According to Freud, these parts are often not at
peace with one another

Id The one and only part to the human personality AT BIRTH. Actions based on pleasure principle – the id is only
concerned with satisfying personal desires, regardless of limitations or consequence.
These reflexive actions are still present as adults, but held in check by other parts of the personality.
Id uses wish fulfillment to satisfy its needs: if a baby is hungry with no food nearby, the id imagines the food and temporarily satisfies the need.
Id impulses are unconscious, therefore, we are unaware of all the impulses we might wish to act upon.

Ego 0-2yrs + interaction with environment = ego Ego’s actions based on the reality principle –
that is, the primary job of the ego is to satisfy the id impulse, but in a realistic way.
Keeps unacceptable and dangerous id impulses in the unconscious

Superego About five years = superego Represents society’s and parents’ values and standards Places more restrictions on what one can and cannot do. Primary weapon – guilt! According to Freud, some children fail to fully develop
the superego due to poor child-rearing practices. Can also become too powerful (“supermoral”), with
impossible standards of perfection.

Instincts and Tension Reduction Freud maintained that human behaviour is motivated by
strong internal forces – drives/instincts Two major categories of instincts:
1) life/sexual instincts - Eros2) death/aggressive instincts - Thanatos
The two types combine to motivate behaviours. Freud attributed most human behaviour to the life/sexual
instinct. Note: sexual includes anything resulting in pleasure. Death instinct: the desire we all have to die and return to
the earth. Mostly unconscious. Expression: self destruction, aggression against others.

Instinct Activation Increased psychological tension is created. Comparable to feelings of excitation, nervousness
and arousal. Tension remains until the particular need is
satisfied. Undesirable state = goal of most human
behaviour to reduce the tension and return to a state of no tension.
