Conscientiousness, Conscience, Ego

One's awareness that one is dreaming is an instance of Conscientiousness, a homeostatic self-monitoring process that is ingredient in all motility but only becomes salient in certain experiences, e. g. when one is learning to do something new, when extraordinary care is required etc.  In contrast, what is usually called Conscience is Conscientiousness in social contexts, i. e. the former is a special case of the latter.  Now, in terms of Freud's Psychic model, while Conscience is a manifestation of the Superego, Conscientiousness is a function of the Ego.  Thus, the Superego is a special case of the Ego, not, as Freud conceives it, a distinct Psychic principle.  The reason he separates them is that he fails to recognize that there is an immediate Ego-awareness of Motility that is more fundamental than that of the Id, e. g. he fails to analyze the Libido as constituted by a sequence of processes, including some rudimentary motility, which cannot be accomplished without the self-monitoring that manifests Conscientiousness.
