How is Your Personality Constructed?

According to Freud, every psyche consists of three parts: the id โ€“ a human's natural instincts, the ego- acts according to reality; and the superego โ€“ reflects the internalization of cultural rules. In each person, there is a different arrangement of these characteristics. Some people are controlled by instincts, others by the superego, and so on. This arrangement is what gives us our unique personality and influences how we react to life situations and the decisions we make. The next quiz will tell you how your personality is structured and will teach you some very interesting things you may not know about yourself...
