The psychology of handwriting is an interdisciplinary study of the
relationship between psychological characteristics and handwriting.
The results presented in the book refer to a possibility of
identification of a persons personality/mental traits on the basis
of ones handwriting. The author has performed very extensive
research in the area and has replicated all of her previous studies
using the most modern computer software to analyze graphical
patterns. The work is carried out diligently with regard to the
methodology. The author analyzes handwriting feature sets, not
single features, and examines them in the context of different
personality dimensions, temperament traits, state and trait
anxiety, antisocial personality disorder, affective disorders, and
schizophrenia. This book is the result of an extensive work;
laborious analysis was carried out on 1174 handwriting samples. The
results obtained laid the ground for the formulation of cutting
edge conclusions demonstrating that handwriting parameters are not
specific to particular personality/temperament traits or mental
disorders.Although handwriting is individualized, there is no
support for the thesis that psychological traits can be revealed
through handwriting characteristics. The book presents a synthesis
of numerous concepts spread throughout a variety of research
disciplines and is a compendium on Barbara Gawdas newest research.
The author proposes an original cognitive network theory, which
summarizes the theoretical background and explains the lack of
relationship between psychological patterns and handwriting.
Special acknowledgments should be given to this novel concept. The
network model of the relationship between psyche and handwriting
brings substantial input into the development of interdisciplinary
research on handwriting and is important from the perspective of
cognitive, forensic, and clinical psychology.
