How is ego psychology the same as self psychology?
Ego means Self To begin with, Freud used the German word "Ich" for the executive functions of the psychical realm. "Ich" may be translated as "I" or "Self" and Freud used both notions in his writings. "Ego" appears in Psychoanalysis when James Strachey needed a term for "Ich" in his translation of Freud's writings. Over the years, "Ego" became an expression for an array of functions characteristic of the executive mind. As such it comes close to the notion of "Self," but the concept of "Self" is larger. Ego psychology focuses on the dysfunctions of the array, while Self psychology focus on the organization of the self in terms of self-esteem, self-coherence, continuity of self, and basic affective coloration of self. So in contemporary theory, ego does not mean self, while in colloquial terms it does.
