Not available

Explanation:

Freud divided the psyche into three parts: the id (instincts), the superego (morality), and the ego (the rational mediator). The clue asks for his term for the "rational selves," which directly points to the ego—pluralized as "EGOS" to fit the crossword’s grid. It’s a straightforward definition with no wordplay, just a nod to basic Freudian psychology.
