Frequently Asked Questions
What is Graphology?
Graphology is that branch of psychology dealing with the
scientific study, analysis, and assessment of character through
handwriting. It is an empirical science. It has proven to be 95-97%
accurate and is considered the fastest, most accurate character
assessment tool available in the world today.
Alfred Binet, who 100 years ago developed the IQ test still in
use today, did an extensive study of handwriting analysis as a
character assessment tool. He concluded that graphology would be of
vital importance in future assessments. Sigmund Freud, the father of
psychoanalysis, reviewed graphology and declared, "you can
definitely know men by the way they write." Handwriting is even
referred to in the book of Proverbs in the Bible.
How can you accurately interpret character
or personality through handwriting?
Handwriting is a snapshot of the writer's mind. The paper on
which he writes represents the writer's world and how he approaches
it. It shows a person's work habits, mental processing and decision
making skills, social skills and emotional response to people and
situations, amount of energy, follow through and emotional maturity,
criminal and dishonest tendencies, chemical imbalances and
addictions, as well as many other behavior traits, which can affect
a person's job performance.
Does Graphology reveal everything about an
individual?
No. Age, sex, race, and religious beliefs are not evidenced in
handwriting. You cannot determine if the writer is right or left
handed. No one can tell fortunes or predict the future from a
handwriting analysis.
How can I benefit from
Graphology?
Handwriting analysis gives instant understanding of a person's
psychological makeup - what makes them "tick". Comparable to what
might be revealed in intensive, extensive, long-term
psychotherapy.
How Can you accurately
interpret character or personality through handwriting
Handwriting is brain
writing. Through your handwriting you put down on paper the
coded symbols of the brain, the sum total of the conscious and subconscious
mind. A Graphologist (handwriting analyst) decodes the symbols
much like a computer programmer decodes computer language.
