Explanation

The Ishikawa diagram (also called a fishbone diagram or cause-and-effect diagram) is specifically designed to map causes and their effects on a problem or outcome. It is a quality management tool used in quality control processes to identify root causes of defects or issues. A histogram shows frequency distributions (used in forecasting/statistics). A scatter diagram shows correlations between two variables (not cause-effect mapping). A Gantt chart is a timeline/scheduling tool. The Ishikawa diagram is the definitive answer for cause-and-effect analysis in quality control contexts.
