Definition

  • Graphology, or handwriting analysis, is sometimes used to assess personality or make inferences about specific attributes such as integrity. The underlying theory is that there are a number of structural characteristics of a person's handwriting that provide reliable indications of personality, including traits such as honesty or loyalty.
