The three parts of the human psyche are the superego, ego, and id. The superego is the part of the mind instructing one what is good, and what choices to avoid. The superego censors out bad decisions. The id is the part of the mind giving one the desire for everything that is bad. The ego is the person listening to the superego and the id. Basically, in modern cartoons when there is a girl with a devil on one shoulder and an angel on the other, the angel is the superego, the devil is the id, and the girl is the ego. This theory fascinated many other psychologists, gaining Freud influence
