Since the time of Aristotle, people have been using handwriting analysis, a branch of psychology
that examines handwriting patterns to determine personality traits. There are various uses for it
now, including studying health and conducting criminal investigations. Each person has an own
handwriting style. In reality, studies have found that as soon as somebody learns to write, they
progressively start to change the sizes and forms of letters in accordance with their own
preferences and dislikes. because the way we develop our handwriting depends on our
personalities. These symbols, which are as individual as a person's DNA, are used by handwriting
to portray a pattern of our mind through signs on a page.
Typical handwriting traits that can reveal more about a person's personality include:
1. In Letter Size-
If you are shy or extroverted, your letter size will usually tell. Therefore, if your letters are
little and do not meet the top line of a lined piece of paper, it is likely that you are timid and
introverted. Large letters that extend past the top line, on the other hand, often indicate that
you are outgoing, confident, and attention seeking.
2. Word spacing- Word Spacing Research has indicated that persons who write with a lot
of space between each word prefer autonomy and freedom, whilst people who write
with minimal space between each word may prefer social interaction and desire to
remain alone.
3. Dotting I’s- Your personality can be inferred from the mark on your i's or lack thereof.
You are imaginative if you position the dot above the letter, but if you place it to the
left, you tend to put things off. If you use a dash, you could be extremely judgmental,
while those using a circle instead of a dot have childlike . Someone who is orderly and
assertive may be indicated with a dot firmly written over the letter.
4. Writing pressure- Writing with a pencil or pen while exerting a lot of pressure conveys
commitment. However, under great circumstances, uptight characteristics can be seen.
Those who exert light pressure, but at the other hand, frequently exhibit compassion
and are sensitive.
5. Crossing T’s- Graphologists also take into account the cross-sectional area of a T.
They've discovered that those who use short crosses are indolent, whereas those who
use bigger crosses are fervent and driven.
Crime scene evidence can be connected to a person via forensic handwriting analysis, which is
employed in criminology. Texts, messages, or initials left at the crime scene are compared to a
sample of the suspect's handwriting after it is taken. Individual differences can be seen in
handwriting. This implies that each person has a different handwriting style. Everybody has a
distinctive style. The possibility of possessing any more than that is impossible, according to
handwriting researchers, although people might share a few writing traits. When we learned
handwriting in school using a book, we were taught the style features, which would account for
the similarities in our handwriting. Therefore, handwriting is just as distinctive as a fingerprint. In
order to identify the writer of a writing sample, handwriting analysis compares it against writing
samples whose author is unknown. Formatting, line form, and letter form are the three factors
that a QDE( Questioned Document Examiner) examines.
Handwriting analysis falls under the category of questioned documents in the field of forensic
analysis, which also encompasses the study of crime scenes, DNA testing, fibre evaluation,
fingerprint analysis, voice identification, and drug analysis, to name just a few specialties.
Questioned document examiners (QDEs) scrutinise papers for indications of tampering and
forgery and, in the case of sample documents, writing or typing comparisons to establish or
disprove authorship.
•Letter form—This comprises curves, slants, the comparative size of letters (the ratio between
both the size of short and long letters as well as the width and height of a single letter), the
inclination of writing, and the use and appearance of coordinates (links) between letters.
Depending on whether a letter is at the start, middle, or end of a word, the way a person forms it
may vary. A researcher will therefore look for instances from each character in each arrangement.
•Line form: The smoothness and darkness of the lines tell us how quickly and how much stress
the writer uses to write.
Every person in the world has a different style of writing, which serves as the fundamental
premise for handwriting analysis as a science. Every one of us learnt to write in primary school
using a specific copybook, or writing style. Our handwriting is based on a certain copybook
depending on when and where we were born. As a result, when we were younger and living in
comparable environments, we all basically wrote in a similar way. But as time went on, the
writing traits we mastered in school, our traits of style, became merely the fundamental approach
to our handwriting. In order to set our handwriting apart from someone else's, we developed
distinctive personal traits. The majority of us don't write today the same manner we did first or
second class. Additionally, while two or more persons may have a few unique traits, the
likelihood that they would also share 20 or 30 unique traits is so remote that many writing
analysts would declare it to be impossible.
Hence, our handwriting is shaped according to our characteristics and plays a major role in
defining our personality, educational background, etc.
