To correctly match List-I (theoretical perspectives) with List-II (scholars associated with these perspectives), let's analyze each:

Structuralism (A) → Levi Strauss (IV)

Claude Lévi-Strauss is one of the most prominent structuralist thinkers. Structuralism focuses on deep structures that shape human culture and cognition.
Feminism (B) → Juliet Mitchell (III)

Juliet Mitchell is a feminist scholar who contributed significantly to feminist psychoanalysis and the intersection of Marxism and feminism.
Functionalism (C) → Emile Durkheim (II)

Émile Durkheim is a key figure in functionalism, which focuses on how social institutions and norms maintain societal stability.
Symbolic Interactionism (D) → Erving Goffman (I)

Erving Goffman is a major theorist in symbolic interactionism, known for his work on social roles, impression management, and dramaturgical analysis in everyday life.
Final Matching:
A-IV (Structuralism - Levi Strauss)
B-III (Feminism - Juliet Mitchell)
C-II (Functionalism - Emile Durkheim)
D-I (Symbolic Interactionism - Erving Goffman)

Thus, the correct option is 4. A-IV, B-III, C-II, D-I.
