When you’re conscious, you’re aware of your id, ego and superego at work or play. The id puts pleasure above principle. The ego moderates pleasurable desire with practicality. The superego is the moral police who wants to be the party pooper. What is the situation when you’re sleeping and unconscious? Who is in charge? Who takes charge to invent dreams? Which part of you invents dreams?
You’ll wonder as sometimes, you see strange dreams. Stranger than fiction. In those dreams, maybe the id ran wild with the dream app. (Hey, we’re in the App Age where even the brain has apps to perform functions. Lol.)
Introduction, initiation into Clarks, Scotts & Rogers explains Clark’s theory of three personalities prevalent in society. According to Clark, the blogger who named the three personalities in his alternate Wakefield Doctrine, a person’s recessive personality traits can take over during their sleep, and run amok with the dream app. This is Clark’s explanation in the WakefieldDoctrine.com post.
In my opinion, the Wakefield Doctrine’s three personality types nearly corresponds to the traditional
id
ego and
superego.
The id can be found in the Clark.
The ego might correlate to the Scott, as he puts his pleasure first and foremost.
The superego is the Roger, who wants himself to belong to a coherent group.
My traditional explanation is that there could be 50 factors causing dreams. Click on the link to read them.
