Answer:

The correct answer is option b. flooding.

Explanation:

This technique is used in a way that exposes a person with phobia, directly to a situation in which their greatest fear is present.

It is a fairly extreme way to treat a phobia since <u>the treated person is trapped with no option to leave</u>. The objective of this technique is that just being “trapped”, the person can reduce their anxiety levels, since they have no other option.

Before submitting a patient to this treatment, he or she must inform a consent because <u>the levels of stress and trauma they are going to face are very high</u>. It is very likely that the patient does not want to end the therapy because of that reason.

The treatment is effective for treating particular phobias such as spider phobia. But it is not effective in treating complex phobias such as social phobia.

Laws always result from the pushes and pulls of lobbying​ efforts, political​ pressures, and have nothing to do with ethics.
Leto [7]
It is false, because the law is based on core ideas of ethics, actually. In common law, cases are determined with the help of the past decisions. Those decisions are also based on past decisions and so on. It shows that timeline doesn't matter; what matters is just the rules and principles of law.
