According to Freud, which part of the personality balances the demand of the other two parts and, thus, represents the personality that others see?
A
Id
B
Ego
C
Superego
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In Freud’s view, a balance in the dynamic interaction of the id, ego, and superego is necessary for a healthy personality. While the ego has a tough job to do, it does not have to act alone. Anxiety also plays a role in helping the ego mediate between the demands of the basic urges, moral values, and the real world.

Detailed explanation-2: -The ego develops to mediate between the unrealistic id and the external real world. It is the decision-making component of personality. Ideally, the ego works by reason, whereas the id is chaotic and unreasonable.

Detailed explanation-3: -The ego mediates and balances the opposing motives and drives of the id and superego with reality.

Detailed explanation-4: -Parts of the Superego In psychology, the superego can be further divided into two components: the ego ideal and the conscience1 (which may be more familiar as a concept).

Detailed explanation-5: -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).
