Sense of self (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ego

'sense of self' is the definition.
(psychological term for one's inner self)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for ego that I've seen before include "Consciousness" , "Person's sense of self" , "Self-esteem, conceit" , "Self-confidence" , "Inflated pride" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times, the Universal, The Sunday Times, the Newsday, The Wall Street Journal, The Mirror, The Times, the LA Times, the King Feature Syndicate, The Star Tribune, the USA Today and the Penny Press.
