A group of middle managers in a company are required to undergo a training programme aimed at improving their leadership abilities. A researcher wants to establish the effectiveness of the training programme. She tests each participant before the training commences on a questionnaire that measures the leadership ability of each participant as well as on their score on a scale that measures self-esteem. After the training programme is completed, each participant is again tested for their leadership ability. The table below shows the results of the measurements.
