Explanation:

Symbolic interactionism focuses on how people interpret symbols and meanings in their social interactions and environments, including spaces. Miriam studies how architecture (a space - related element) influences culture through people's interpretation of meaning from spaces, which aligns with symbolic interactionism. Conflict theorists focus on power struggles, structural functionalists on social order and function, and feminists on gender - related issues, none of which match Miriam's focus.

D. symbolic interactionist
