Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
Observational measure, SYMLOG, and Interaction Process Analysis (IPA) are methodologies focused on observing and analyzing behaviors or interactions, often used in social sciences. Self-report, on the other hand, relies on individuals providing information about themselves, which does not fit with the observational nature of the other options.
