Superego

The Superego (also called the Shoulder Angel) is a Freudian term for the part of the mind that places foreign factors into consideration. The Superego is diametrically opposed to the Id.

Description
The Superego is the the Freudian representation of foreign factors considered in human behavior. In other words, the part of the mind that considers others over the individual. In Sigmund Freud's theory, the Id (one's deepest, unfiltered desires) and the Superego insert suggestions to the Ego (one's own sense of identity). While the Id tries to convince the Id to act upon their desires, the Superego demands for them to do the right thing. Because of this, the Superego is seen as the honorable and righteous path to take.
