A cause-and-effect analysis generates and sorts hypotheses about possible causes of problems within a process by asking participants to list all of the possible causes and effects for the identified problem.Ĭause and effect analysis is often conducted by drawing cause-and-effect diagrams (also known as Fishbone Diagram), which organize a large amount of information by showing links between events and their potential or actual causes and provide a means of generating ideas about why the problem is occurring and possible effects of that cause. This is a combination of action and reaction. Cause and effect is a relationship between events or things, where one is the result of the other or others.
