Answer:

The preceptor's statement is an example of tradition.

Explanation:

Notice how the preceptor does not offer an explanation based on evidence from experimentation. He simply states that that is the way it has always been done. That is an example of tradition, which can be a barrier to evidence-based practice. Tradition limits problem solving. It prevents changes from happening, often maintaining obsolete practices that could very well be updated for better results.
