==Topology==
A [[topographical model]] uses imagined [[space ]] to make a [[Freud]]'s [[theory ]] of the [[mind]] or [[psyche]] understandable, helps us to picture the [[structure ]] of the [[mind]] or [[psyche]].
==Topographical Model==
According to the [[Freud]]'s first "[[topographical model]]", the [[mind]] or [[psyche]]
is [[divided ]] into [[three ]] three [[separate ]] component parts, systems or "[[psychical ]] localities":
* the [[conscious]] ('''[[conscious|Cs]]'''),
* the [[preconscious]] ('''[[preconscious|Pcs]]''') and
* the [[unconscious]] ('''[[unconscious|Ucs]]''')
 
===Unconscious===
This simple [[model]] assumed that the [[unconscious]] was chiefly, if not entirely, derived from [[repression]], and therefore consisted of impulses, [[thoughts]], and [[feelings]], which were unacceptable to the [[conscious]] [[ego]].
===Material===
[[Material ]] in the [[unconscious]] could never become [[conscious]], but material in the [[preconscious]] could occasionally become [[conscious]].  The [[unconscious]], Freud saw as containing material which had been [[repressed]] for some [[reason]]: because it was too [[traumatic]] or [[pain]]ful to reach [[consciousness]].

==Structural Model==
The three [[structures ]] of the [[id]], [[ego]], and [[superego]] Freud saw as [[mapping ]] onto this model.
The [[ego]] he argued was not always [[conscious]], or even [[preconscious]].
The [[superego]], he argued, spanned the [[unconscious]] and the [[preconscious]], while the [[id]] was completely [[unconscious]].
