We present a new method to study the stability of one-dimensional discrete-time models, which is based on studying the graph of a certain family of functions. The method is closely related to exponent analysis, which the authors introduced to study the global stability of certain intricate convex combinations of maps. We show that the new strategy presented here complements and extends some existing conditions for the global stability. In particular, we provide a global stability condition improving the condition of negative Schwarzian derivative. Besides, we study the relation between this new method and the enveloping technique.
