Final answer:

Insanity is a legal term used to describe a state of mental incapacity affecting an individual's understanding of their actions.


Explanation:

Insanity is actually a legal term rather than a clinical diagnosis or psychiatric label. It refers to a state where a person is unable to understand the consequences of their actions due to mental illness. For example, a claim of temporary insanity may be used in legal cases to argue that at the time of the crime, the individual was not mentally competent.
