Freud's theory (id ego and superego)+ apply

According to Freud's model of the psyche, 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.


According to Sigmund Freud, human personality is complex and has more than a single component. In his famous psychoanalytic theory of personality, personality is composed of three elements. These three elements of personality—known as the id, the ego, and the superego—work together to create complex human behaviors.
Each component not only adds its own unique contribution to personality, but all three elements interact in ways that have a powerful influence on each individual. Each of these three elements of personality emerges at different points in life.



A film that shows the concept of the id, the ego and the superego can be seen in the film The Cat in the Hat by Dr. Seuss, between the fish being the superego, the cat being the id and the children Conrad and Sally are the ego. this can be seen clearly in the scene where the fish talks for the first time and lectures the children on how they shouldnt listen to the cat and follow the rules instead “He should not be here, ” said the fish in the pot. “he should not be here when your mother is not.”
