Superego is the influence of society and culture on personality and behaviour: ego ideal (right): all of those things that a child was rewarded, conscience (wrong): all those behaviours we were punished or. Superego is powered by libido that came from the id, and it can use the libido to form an anti-cathexis between an image that is morally wrong and the id.
