周老师解释：Verb form; Diction
The subject of the sentence, two Swiss psychologists, needs a main verb. The -ing verb form declaring cannot, on its own, be the main verb of a correct English sentence. Furthermore, the clause that addresses the reason for not taking the studies also seriously needs a subject (most of the studies) and a verb (had failed).
A.psychologists缺谓语
B.psychologists缺谓语； failed in not controlling awkward且意思不同于failed to control for； such like错
C.having failed不能作从句主语most of the studies的谓语，缺谓语
D.fail与declared时态不一致； such like错
