    • All humans hove criminal tendencies as we grow we learn self control
      A child not brought up properly develops personality problems.
      We know very little about the mind only about the conscious
    • Most of our mid is the unconscious, determine behaviour and personality
      The conscious : the small activity we know about
      + Thoughts and perception
      The subconscious: the things we can be aware of if we want to
      + Memories and knowledge
      The unconscious : what we are in aware of and cannot become aware of
      + Fear, unacceptable sexual, violent motives, traumatic, shameful experience
    • Tripartite personality
      A person who doesn't have a healthy balance are more likely to commit crimes
      If ID or SUPEREGO is overdeveloped they will crimes as they have no self control
      Strong SUPEREGO commits crime as they seek punishment
      A weak super ego means they have little to no remorse so they don't care and are more likely to commit crimes
    • ID
      -present at birth operates on the pleasure principles, get what it wants ( selfish, animalistic urges)
      -satisfies is need at any cost, leads to anti social criminal behaviour
      SUPER EGO
      -develops at 2 years, work on the reality principle refusing conflict between ID and EGO (rational, sensible and control)
      EGO

      -struggle between super ego and Id
      -socialisation internalised right and wrong
