Freud used the term id to refer to:
“a reservoir of unorganized instinctual drives. Operating under the domination of the primary process, the id lacks the capacity to delay or modify the instinctual drives with which an infant is born. The id, however, should not be viewed as synonymous with the unconscious, because both the ego and the superego have unconscious components.”
K&S, p 199
Freud used the term ego to refer to:
“the executive organ of the psyche, controls motility, perception, contact with reality, and, through the defense mechanisms available to it, the delay and modulation of the drive expression.”

Explain the term Reaction Formation
Transforming an unacceptable impulse into its opposite. Reaction formation is characteristic of obsessional neurosis, but it may occur in other forms of neuroses as well. if this mechanism is frequently used at any early stage of ego development, it can become a permanent character trait, as in an obsessional character.
