Use this test to determine whether a traditional P chart or a Laney P' chart is more appropriate to chart the proportion of defectives in your sample. If the test determines that your data exhibit overdispersion or underdispersion a Laney P' chart may more accurately distinguish between common cause variation and special cause variation.
