creates

as the ego struggles to keep the “id” happy, it meets
with obstacles in the world. It occasionally meets
with objects that actually assist it in attaining its
goals. And it keeps a record of these obstacles and

conscience, which is an internalization of
punishments and warnings. The other is called the
ego ideal. It derives from rewards and positive
models presented to the child.
