Freud's Psychosexual Theory of Development

The id, ego, and superego

The id, ego, and superego

Freud believed that we are only aware of a small amount of our mind’s activities and that most of it remains hidden from us in our unconscious. The information in our unconscious affects our behavior, although we are unaware of it.
