Answer:

The statement that best describes the function of the Freudian superego is "it's not the right thing to do that"

Explanation:

Superego is the values and morals of a society that are learned from their parents.

According to Freud's personality theory,

  • It develops at age of 3 - 5 years during psychosexual development.
  • As rewards, It is seen as feelings of satisfaction and pride.
  • As for punishments, feelings of guilt and shame.
  • It is an unconscious voice of conscience and it is the source of self-criticism too.

The superego's function

  • is to control the id's impulses.
  • it also has the function to persuade the ego to moralistic goals to strive for perfection.

Superego has 2 systems:

  • Conscience
  • ideal - self

Our inner voice is called the Conscience, it tells when something goes wrong. It can punish the ego through feelings of guilt.

The ideal - self is the picture of oneself, that represents career aspirations, behaviour in society etc.

Therefore, the best statement that describes is " It's not right to do that".
