Answer: The correct answer is: "The <u>M’Naghten Rule</u> holds that individuals cannot be held criminally responsible for their actions if at the time of the crime they did not know what they were doing or did not know that their actions were wrong."

Explanation:

The M’Naghten Rule refers to a test which determines the legal sanity of a defendant in a criminal case.  

This rule determines if the individual is legally insane taking into account if he/she is able to distinguish between right and wrong with respect to the crime he/she is accused of.

If it is proven that the defendant does not understand the seriousness of the crime he/she committed, it cannot be assured that existed a criminal intent, which is essential to establish guilt of a crime.

When Gary found out that his new job required some air travel, he sought the help of a clinical psychologist to deal with his intense fear of flying.

As the first step in the process of systematic desensitization, the clinical psychologist trained Gary in a technique called progressive relaxation.

That technique is a relaxation therapy focused on tightening and relaxing muscle groups in a sequence. In 1920, Dr. Edmund Jacobson developed this technique also known as a progressive relaxation therapy. Doing this tightening and relaxing of muscles, the patient is aware of its body sensations. This therapy also helps to relax the mind.
