Graphology for Recruitment - FAQS

Q: What is Graphology?

Ans: Graphology is the study and analysis of handwriting, especially in relation to human psychology. In the medical field, it can be used to refer to the study of handwriting as an aid in diagnosis and tracking of diseases of the brain and nervous system. The term is sometimes incorrectly used to refer to forensic document examination. The latter is concerned with establishing the authenticity of writing and signatures, and such analysts are frequently called upon to make judgments in legal situations although police authorities have been known to hire graphologists to analyze the writing of criminals.

Empirical interpretation of handwriting dates back to ancient times. Aristotle claimed that he could define a person's soul by his way of writing. Graphology was systematized in nineteenth-century France when the Abbé Flandrin (1809-64) made a detailed study of autographs.

Although modern graphologists have evolved a scientific rationale that assigns particular significance to the slope of handwriting, the formation of individual letters, size of characters, joinings and disjoinings of letters, and so on, interpretation remains largely subjective and allows considerable room for the practitioner's psychic ability to operate and add material. Some graphologists allow the handwriting itself to convey impressions in much the same way as objects function in psychometry. Perhaps one's signature is the most characteristic piece of handwriting, for consciously or unconsciously it becomes a kind of symbolic self-portrait, indicating the personality as a whole.

Q: What are the scientific tenets that forms the base of graphology?

Ans: Graphology is based upon the following basic assertions:

1) The muscular movements involved in writing are controlled by the central nervous system. The form of the resultant writing movement is modified further by the flexibly assembled coordinative structures in the hand, arm, and shoulder; which follow the principles of dynamical systems. The specific writing organ (mouth, foot, hand, crook of elbow) is irrelevant if it functions normally and is sufficiently adapted to its function.

2) When the action of writing is comparatively difficult, the writer uses those forms of letters which are simpler or more familiar.

3) When we write, the ego is active but it is not always active to the same degree. Its activity waxes and wanes; being at its highest level when an effort has to be made by the writer and at its lowest level when the motion of the writing organ has gained momentum and is driven by it.

4) The movements and corresponding levels of muscular tension in writing are mostly outside of conscious control and subject to the ideomotor effect. Emotion, mental state, and biomechanical factors such as muscle stiffness and elasticity are reflected in a person's handwriting.

5) The neurophysiological mechanisms which contribute to the written movement are related to conditions within the central nervous system and vary in accordance with them. The written strokes, therefore, reflect both transitory and long term changes in the central nervous system such as Parkinson's disease, or alcohol usage.

One must examine the handwriting or drawing movements by considering them as movements organized by the central nervous system and produced under biomechanical and dynamical constraints. Given these considerations, graphologists proceed to evaluate the pattern, form, movement, rhythm, quality, and consistency of the graphic stroke in terms of psychological interpretations.

Q: What are the benefits of Graphology?

Ans: Graphology is very helpful to understand one’s subconscious mind that directs one’s hands to move in a specific manner. It is yet another method to know our subconscious mind.

Ø       It is an important tool for self-awareness. Similarly, it can be helpful to understand others.

Ø       It is helpful for match-making in marriage as we can check compatibility between people through their handwritings.

Ø       It gives insights into child-development. If parents want to find out if they are bringing up their child in a wholistic manner, they can check their own & child’s handwriting, & find the interlinking factors. For the similar reasons, it is very helpful for teachers, therapists etc.

Utilizing this method of character assessment has several advantages in assisting corporations and organizations:

Ø       Employees can gain insights into their own personalities, giving them a better understanding of themselves and others. A detailed employee character assessment can be used as a working document for self development and professional growth.

Ø       Strengths and weaknesses can be identified, as well as areas of potential talents and skills.

Ø       Communications between and within employee teams can be enhanced.

This method is objective, non-threatening, non-discriminatory and time-efficient. Some people are very successful at job interviews, or putting on a front to people that isn't their true self. Companies can waste money hiring people who are unsuitable for the job. As a result, now-a-days, corporations and other organizations now use

Graphology widely as an integral component of personnel hiring and development.
