You have two sets of group dimensions here--per participant (20) and per value of the 4 vars. Crossing them would give you 80 lines on your chart. I guess that truly would be a mess of spaghetti. Is that what you want?

I was thinking about it. But I still don't know how to create a number
of separate lines for each participant on the same graph...

I think this needs a 'wide' (horizontal) dataset (one row per client
with 4 vars instead of a 'long' (vertical) 4 rows per client dataset.
Use CASETOVARS to convert then you should be able to do a chart of the 4
vars by time.

Let's say I have 20 participants, each with four rows of data for var1
and a variable Time with values 1-4 marking what time was each value
collected at. I would like a graph with values of the var1 on y axis and
values of Time on x axis and 20 lines on the graph showing the values of
var1 at each time point for each of the participants. Any ideas how to
do it in SPSS? Thanks!

I googled spaghetti graph but the hits seemed to be about ecological
modeling or path diagrams. Could you be a bit more specific or provide a
URL to a similar example?

Subject: individual graphs of change
Hello, I have a file with multiple rows (4) for each subject, each row
with a var value for a particular data point. I want to create a set of
individual 'spaghetti' graphs mapping these 4 values for each subject.
Any suggestions how I can do it in SPSS or where should I look for
instructions? Thanks so much.
