Self-report data is collected when participants report their own experiences, attitudes, or beliefs. In this case, the psychologist is asking participants to describe their experiences using mental imagery, which would be considered self-report data.

Choice C is incorrect because chronometric evidence involves measuring the time it takes for participants to complete a task, which is not necessarily relevant to this experiment. Choice D is incorrect because converging evidence involves using multiple sources of data to support a hypothesis, which is not necessarily relevant to this experiment.
