Question 6

freud’s psychoanalytic theory

Answer 6

we conform to societal expectations & obey its rules bc our superego tells us to have self control & behave in a socially accepted way.

as result of internalisation our superego & traditions we follow become part of our inner self, influenced by things outside of it e.g parents rules, culture
