The probabilistic schemes with independence between the trials show different dispersion characteristics depending on the behaviour of the probabilities of the binary event in the trials. This work proposes a probabilistic scheme with uniform correlation structure that leads to different dispersion characteristics depending on the sign of the linear correlation. Finally, a hypothesis test is proposed to identify the type of the dispersion of the probabilistic scheme.
