How do you know?
Subjective measurement of time is very inaccurate. I have experienced this, when I timed some regular activities I undertook every day, total habit. I would have said they took me ten seconds. When I timed them, it was forty five seconds.
I have no faith in anybodies' perception of how long they can switch context like this unless they have objectively measured it
I have heard that this has been studied, a quick web search turned up just this: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/0001691880900013 https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/000169...

On the face of it, I'd assumed an awake person already engaging their brain would perform better than a person just waking up in that context, but perahps not. >I have no faith in anybodies' perception of how long they can switch context like this unless they have objectively measured it Agreed. Moreover, I'd say that the risk for faulty information processing or incorrect preconceptions is higher if the person is distracted but awake.
