I spent a couple of pleasant hours on the PsychClassics website. Chris
has several articles which discuss consciousness and psychoanalytic
concepts but I was unable to find any use of the iceberg analogy.
But I did discover this interesting read:
Boring, Edwin G. (1951). The woman problem. American Psychologist, 6,
679-682

Annette Taylor, Ph. D. wrote:

Stevenson is, or was, a reader in logic and Metaphysics at the
University of St. Andrews, Scotland; and, I must say, that I found
his little book, Seven Theories of Human Nature (1974) (Oxford
University Press, 1987) a most useful work in the earlier stages of
my study."
I have the 2nd ed. of Stevenson's book (1987). On p. 73 he makes use of
the iceberg metaphor, but includes no diagram. He does not attribute it
to Freud, but calls it only a "familiar but helpful analogy."
