ego strength
Definition
- The concept of ego strength derives from psychoanalytic theory and refers to the healthy, adaptive functioning of the ego (i.e., the capacity for effective personal functioning). Sigmund Freud conceptualized the ego as an intrapsychic substructure that serves the essential organizing and synthesizing functions that are necessary for an individual to adapt to the external world.
