Forward Test

When you are riding in a car and the car stops suddenly, you continue to move forward because of

• friction

• gravity

• inertia

• centripetal force

• the boat also moves forward

• the boat remains motionless

• the boat moves backward

• the boat moves backward and then forward

Which of the following is a common tool used in forward testing for data analysis?

• Regression analysis

• Content analysis

• Ethnographic study
