Özel eğitim alanında en yaygın olarak kullanılan deneysel çalışma yöntemlerinden birisi tek-denekli araştırmalardır. Bu araştırmalarda bağımlı değişken ve bağımsız değişken arasındaki ilişkiyi ortaya koyan çizgi grafikleri, görsel analiz yöntemi kullanılarak analiz edilmektedir. Bu analizlerin objektif bir şekilde yapılabilmesi ve karmaşıklıklardan doğabilecek anlaşılmazlıkların önüne geçilebilmesi için belirli kalite standartlarının takip edilmesi gerekmektedir. Bu araştırma kapsamında özel eğitim alanında tek-denekli modellerden yararlanmış çalışmalarda yer alan çizgi grafiklerinin temel yapı ve kalite özelliklerine göre geliştirilmiş standartlara uygunlukları incelenmiştir. Bulgular, grafiklerin oluşturulma aşamasında temel yapı ve kalite özelliklerinde eksiklikler olduğunu göstermiştir. Ek olarak, çizgi grafiklerindeki eksikliklerin nasıl iyileştirilebileceği ve standartlar takip edilerek nasıl daha kaliteli grafiklere ve dolayısıyla hem etkili hem de tutarlı görsel analizlere ulaşılabileceğinin altı çizilmiştir.
