Now according to the psychoanalytic view the personality consists of three systems: the id the ego and the superego. These are names for psychological structures and should not be thought of as manikins that separately operate the personality; ones personality functions as a whole rather than as three discrete segments.Like it or not Freudian theory is still a standard for evaluating personality in spite of the limitations.

When are these defenses useful and when are they detrimental?
