CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -The superego is the final part of the personality, emerging between the ages of 3 and 5, the phallic stage in Freud’s stages of psychosexual development. The superego is the moral compass of the personality, upholding a sense of right and wrong. These values are initially learned from one’s parents.

Detailed explanation-2: -Freud proposed that the mind is divided into three components: id, ego, and superego, and that the interactions and conflicts among the components create personality (Freud, 1923/1949).

Detailed explanation-3: -Freud analyzes the human psyche in terms of three elements, which he calls, the Id, Ego, and Super-Ego. In order to obtain an understanding as to why humans behave as they do, it is necessary to examine all three. The pleasure principle drives the Id to seek immediate gratification of all needs, wants, and desires.

Detailed explanation-4: -According to Freud’s psychoanalytic theory, the id is the primitive and instinctual part of the mind that contains sexual and aggressive drives and hidden memories, the super-ego operates as a moral conscience, and the ego is the realistic part that mediates between the desires of the id and the super-ego.

Detailed explanation-5: -The superego is the chariot driver’s father, sitting behind him, pointing out his mistakes. It is the part of our brain responsible for criticism and moralising.
