Answer:

C) People need time to shift between two different stimuli.

Step-by-step explanation:

Wilhelm Wundt attempted to study the behavior of mind by measuring and observing the body. He conducted an experiment which would measure the rate of speed of thoughts of the subjects to make any judgment. He experimented by measuring the tie with a pendulum swing. He is referred to as the 'father of experimental psychology' because of his efforts in the field of psychology.
