Supposedly (at least the neuroscientific researches point this way, so this is very probable) it is located in the cingulate cortex. It is the medial part of the cerebral cortex.

When aware operation and conscious decisions are made, the electrical charge goes trough change in this area.

Some research indicates that schizophrenia is also connected with the change in the structure of this part of the brain.

What is the difference between ego and super ego?

In Freudian theory, there are three parts to the personality: the Id, the Ego and the Superego. The Id is the part you were born with that seeks pleasure and avoids pain. The Ego is the part that makes decisions based on comparisons of what the Id wants and what the Superego requires. The Superego is the part that makes moral judgments based on social ideas of what is good or right.

Where did the word ego originate from?

The word ego is the Latin form of the first person singular pronoun. It derives from the Indo-European root eg, which appears in English as I and in German as ichThe technical term ego came from Dr. Sigmund Freud as part of his theory concerning human behavior and repressed urges. His theory states that people have an id, ego, and super ego. The ego is part of the id and it represses infantile urges by the id. At a later stage the super ego develops out of the ego determining what is acceptable to the ego and what needs to be repressed. Repressions disappear from consciousness but live in the id. The job of the psychoanalysis is to uncover the repressions for what they are and to replace them by acts of judgement.
