The correct answer is option a. "methodological; theoretical".

Explanation:

Social neuroscience is an interdisciplinary field dedicated to understand the connection between biological systems and sociological procceses and behaviors. Because of its interdisciplinary nature, social neuroscience is best thought for being a combination of a methodological and theoretical approach. The methodological approach uses measures of the brain and body to study social processes, such as social cognition, attitudes, emotion and motivation. The theoretical approach studies how the field can benefit the study of social psychology, which it does at multilevel analyses.
