Kale Summers · Answer 1

C) William James

Explanation:

William James argued that mental processes are based on the association of particular events, supported at the same time by feelings and sensations. Unlike the computational theory, the associationism explains the transition of thoughts not on a logical: formal and syntactic preassumption, but considering the free association of past expirience. This theory of thought has been the building block of the empirism.
