ps switches 'ps' arguments to display PID, PPID, PGID, and SID collectively

I tried psps with different kinds of switches e.g. -A-A, auxaux, efef, and so forth but I cannot seem to find the right combination of switches that will tell me the Process ID (PID), Parent Process ID (PPID), Process Group ID (PGID), and the Session ID (SID) of a process in the same output.
