Which term denotes indecisiveness or hesitation in making decisions?

• A. Shilly-shallying
• B. Apathetic
• C. Attention Span
• D. Pulchritude

Answer: (A)

Indecisiveness or hesitation in making decisions is best described by a term that means to waver or dither. Shilly-shallying captures that exact idea: to vacillate, to delay committing to a choice, and to keep changing one’s mind. It focuses on the act of hesitating rather than on interest or attention.

By contrast, apathetic means lacking interest or concern, attention span refers to how long someone can focus, and pulchritude means physical beauty. So the term that specifically denotes indecisiveness or hesitation is shilly-shallying.
