Hello Dr Tahir, sorry I can't really help. I've just searched in this textbook that I use online http://www.statsoft.com/textbook/statistics-glossary/ and the only Bartlett I can find is in the glossary and relates to the bartlett window. I recall this test terminology from a decade or so ago when I was helping someone with an analysis and if my memory is correct, yes transformation was done but I'm not 100% certain - must be getting old and forgetful.
