Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The structure of personality that deals with the demands of reality and uses reasoning to make decisions is known as the ego, according to Freud's theory. The id is the primitive structure of personality that operates on the pleasure principle, seeking immediate gratification of desires. The superego represents the internalized cultural and moral rules that strive for perfection and guilt for wrongdoing. The subconscious is not a structure of personality, but rather refers to the part of the mind that is not readily available to conscious awareness.
