Stratification
One of the 7 basic quality tools
A quality assurance tool used to sort data
Dividing a population into subgroups of similar
nature
Identifies differences that allow elimination or
reduction of variability

OVERVIEW
 Differentiate and
compare groups with
respect to certain
aspects

Determines whether a
problem is confined to a
certain subgroup

Benefits of
Stratification Provides insights into why
the problem exists

Implement areas for

improvement within each
segment of the dataset to
enhance quality
efficiency

OVERVIEW
 Focusing on the greatest
need or potential for
improvement allows
organizations to maximize
the impact of
interventions and achieve
better outcomes

Benefits of Identifying different

variations within each
stratum and assisting in

Stratification reducing potential risks

and performance

Data group insights are

organized and
interpreted, resulting in
more effective
collaboration and
decision-making

OVERVIEW
Example of
Stratification

EXAMPLE
 CONCLUSION
Stratification analysis is a statistical method used to
examine how the effects of treatments or interventions
vary across different subgroups within a population. By
dividing the population into homogeneous subsets based
on specific characteristics, researchers can gain insights
into the factors influencing outcomes. This approach
enables more personalized interventions and better
decision-making. However, rigorous methodology and
validation are essential to ensure the reliability of
conclusions drawn from the analysis.
