Cause & Effect Diagrams
What It Is Used For
Similar to Affinity Grouping, it is used to group items. However,
the grouping is done in a more structured manner; inputs (causes)
are categorized to show how they lead to the output (or the effect.)
When to Use It
To sort independent variables (or causes) into like categories.
Important Notes
Inputs can often be sorted into 5 categories: People, Methods,
Equipment, Materials, and the Environment.
Sometimes called a Fishbone Diagram or an Ishikawa Diagram.
