Respuesta :

Answer:

C) a weak superego.    

Explanation:

Sigmund Freud, a famous psychologist has given the theory of psychoanalysis in which he has described three distinct stages of the personality of an individual's life including id, ego, and the superego.

Superego: The superego component of personality consists of imputing ideas that an individual has got from his or her parents or society. It focuses on suppressing the id's urges and work on making the ego of a person behave morally, instead of realistically.

In the question above, according to Sigmund Freud, Alex is demonstrating a weak superego because he lacks moral conscience.
