FREUDIAN REVOLUTION
In the past, the field of psychology was always
classified under philosophy. Psychology was
considered more of an art rather than science. In
the late 19th century, Sigmund Freud was able to
change people’s perception psychology with his
revolutionary theory of psychoanalysis.
Psychoanalysis is the study that explains human
behaviour. In his theory, Freud explained that
there are many conscious and unconscious factors
that can influence behaviour and emotions. He also argued that
personality is a product of three conflicting elements: id, ego,
and superego. Science hardliners brushed off the legitimacy of
psychoanalysis as a science since its concepts were more
philosophical and supernatural. Many believed that Freud’s theory
had no scientific data could support it.
Perhaps Freud's single most enduring and important idea was that
the human psyche (personality) has more than one aspect.
Freud's personality theory (1923) saw the psyche structured into
three parts (i.e., tripartite), the id, ego and superego, all
developing at different stages in our lives. These are systems,
not parts of the brain, or in any way physical.
According to Freud 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.

The superego consists of two systems: The conscience and the ideal
self. The conscience can punish the ego through causing feelings
of guilt. For example, if the ego gives in to the id's demands,
the superego may make the person feel bad through guilt.
The ideal self (or ego-ideal) is an imaginary picture of how you
ought to be, and represents career aspirations, how to treat other
people, and how to behave as a member of society.
Behaviour which falls short of the ideal self may be punished by
the superego through guilt. The super-ego can also reward us
