Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
Comparing before-therapy sorts to after-therapy sorts may involve correlation, as researchers may be interested in examining how the individuals' rankings of themselves change after therapy. Examining the correlation between the rankings before and after therapy can provide insight into the effectiveness of the therapy. In contrast, the other scenarios listed do not necessarily involve correlation.
