Self-image (3)

I believe the answer is:

ego

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'self' is the first definition.
(synonyms)

'image' is the second definition.
(I have seen 'Image of oneself ' mean 'ego' so perhaps 'image' could also mean 'ego')

(Other definitions for ego that I've seen before include "Part of the mind" , "number one" , "Aspect of the personality" , "See 21 Down" , "(Person's) sense of self-esteem" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror, the USA Today, the Newsday, the Penny Press, The Independent, The Sunday Times, the LA Times, the Evening Standard, the Universal and The Times.
