    This document provides an overview of using Minitab to create cause-and-effect diagrams and scatter diagrams. It discusses the usefulness of cause-and-effect analysis for problem solving and identifying root causes. It outlines the six main categories (6M's) used to organize potential causes in a cause-and-effect diagram: Man, Machine, Material, Method, Mother Nature, and Measurement. Finally, it describes how to construct and interpret scatter diagrams to analyze the relationship between two variables and determine if a correlation exists.

    Usefulness of Cause-and-Effect Analysis
    It can be used when the team...
     needs to study a problem/issue to determine the root cause

     wants to study all the possible reasons why a process is

    beginning to have difficulties, problems, or breakdowns


     needs to identify areas for data collection

     wants to study why a process is not performing properly or

    producing the desired results

    Scatter Diagram
    A scatter graph is a graph using paired data that can be used to find out
    whether there is a relationship between two variables.
    paired data is two separate pieces of data referring to the same thing
    e.g. the age and value of a car
    the height and shoe size of a person
    the marks that a person gained in two separate tests.

    A variable is a piece of information that can change.


    e.g. test results - these can be any value, but will be a specific value for a
    particular person's test.
    Scatter Diagram-Procedure
     Step1: Collect 50-100 samples of data whose relationship to be
    investigated and enter them in data sheet.

     Step2: Draw the horizontal and vertical axes of the graph; indicate the
    higher figure on the upper part of the vertical axes and to the right of the
    horizontal axes. The cause values are placed on horizontal axes and the
    effect values on the vertical axes.

     Step3: Plot the data on a graph


    Interpreting Scatter Diagram
     The relationship between two variables is called a Correlation
     A line of best-fit is a line which helps us to identify the type of
    correlation (positive, negative, no correlation) & make predictions
     The line of best fit is drawn so that the points are evenly distributed
    on either side of the line
     The closer the dots to the line, the stronger the correlation
     Remember:
    1. The line of best fit is a STRAIGHT LINE
    2. It DOES NOT have to pass through the origin
    3. It DOES NOT have to go through each point
    Scatter Diagram
    Correlation:
    is a measure of the relationship between two variables;
    correlation is measure in terms of type and strength
    correlation is assessed by being strong or weak

    strong means there is a very strong relationship such as


    ‘the hotter the weather the more ice creams are sold’

    weak means there is no relationship between things such as


    ‘the colder the weather the better my exam results will be’
    Scatter Diagram
    Correlation on a scatter diagram

    strong correlation weak correlation no correlation

    Notice how the crosses are grouped close together along an


    imagined line
    The crosses are less closely grouped in the example of weak
    correlation.
    Scatter Diagram
    Correlation can also be described and positive or negative,
    Depending on the slope (gradient) of the graph

    positive correlation negative correlation

    Positive correlation means that as one item increases, so does


    the other. e.g. as a person’s height increases so does their armspan
    Negative correlation means that as one item increases, so does
    the other. e.g. as a car gets older its value decreases
