In forestry, the diameter of a tree at breast height is used to model the height of the tree. Silviculturists working in British Columbia’s boreal forest conducted a series of spacing trials to predict the heights of several species of trees. The data are the breast height diameters (in centimeters) and heights (in meters) for a sample of 18 white spruce trees.

Ariatnam, Najafi and Morones ( Journal of Professional Issues in Engineering Education and Practice, 2002) describe an everview of academies on horizontal directional drilling conducted to train engineers and inspectors for the California Department of Transportation. A pretest was administered on the first day prior to any instruction. Instruction and field experience were provided over a 3-day period, followed by a final test administered at the end of the last day. Although the average final test score of 75.27% was higher than the average pretest score of 55.61%, the difference was not significant. Identify the type of study described here. What is the purpose of administering a pretest?
