The same characteristics based on the characteristics: 1. The weight of handwriting determines a person's personality and work ability. 2. Letter size, such as capital letters that are too large, fonts that are too large or too small, prove the intention and desire for personality expression. Abuse of arcs and flower suffixes indicate certain limitations in self-perception and mental state. People who are meticulous and organized often have these characteristics in their handwriting - clear and complete letters and accurate punctuation. 3. Uneven lines are the handwriting of a witty and cunning person. 4. Angular handwriting indicates firm views and intentions, and a tendency to intensify conflicts; smooth handwriting indicates a sophisticated and easy-going personality. Judge a person’s character based on the above characteristics. First of all, look at the weight of the strokes. The weight of the strokes is even and moderate, indicating stability, self-control, and the ability to be fascinated by the things you like. People with uneven strokes like to destroy, have a bad temper, and get sad over trivial things. People with heavy strokes are sensitive; people with light strokes have low self-confidence and like to blame themselves. The lines of words can also speak volumes. Straight lines indicate stability, while ups and downs indicate diplomacy and good at discovering the weaknesses of others. The more you write, the upward slope indicates strong self-esteem; the downward slope indicates a depressed temperament. Large font size indicates the ability to express oneself under extreme conditions, overconfidence and casual behavior; small font size indicates restraint, calculation and observation. People with compact handwriting are stingy and cautious. Looking at psychology from handwriting: People's psychological state has a lot to do with their illness. Some psychotherapeutic experts believe that "handwriting is the writing of the human brain." For example, when a patient writes with a horizontal line of letters sloping upward from left to right, it indicates that the patient is an optimist and his disease is easier to cure; on the contrary, , if the patient's word space or line space is large, it means that he is a pessimist and should do some ideological work before treatment. Some people also use it as a scientific research technology in criminal investigation and interrogation practice. William Hitchcock, a famous American psychotherapy expert, has been studying graphology for 20 years. He has a collection of 40,000 handwriting files, from which he has drawn some specific conclusions: Handwriting is a reflection of a person's personality, intelligence level and A concrete reflection of the logic of thinking. If the weight of the strokes is uniform and moderate, it means that the writer has self-control and stability, and can do his best to complete the work he likes; on the contrary, the writer of uneven strokes is probably a bad-tempered person who likes to destroy, is jealous, and likes to hide behind the scenes. A "conspirator" who makes small moves. People with heavy strokes tend to be more sensitive, while people with too light strokes tend to lack confidence. Uneven lines are the handwriting of a witty or cunning person; angular handwriting indicates that the writer is a person with a strong will, a clear point of view, and will not change his position. However, this kind of person will generally argue with those who have different opinions and become red-faced. . On the contrary, people with smooth handwriting are easy-going, sophisticated, able to sing lily, and good at public relations work. Anyone who writes cleanly on the upper part of the word and can tightly protect the lower part symbolizes that they are enterprising, receptive and eager to learn. These people are good materials for cultivating leaders. Anyone who has rich fonts, well-proportioned strokes, and fast writing speed is a person with strong understanding and loyalty to his duties; and a person whose structure of words is rigorous, square, and able to express strength through dots and strokes is a person with strong memory and serious work; Fonts with square and round shapes, lengths, and sizes that are well-proportioned have strong adaptability and adaptability, and are suitable for communication and public relations work. Anyone who can imitate other people's handwriting but lacks new ideas is highly reliable but can stand on his own; if the handwriting is small, the handwriting is moderate, the Arabic numerals are beautiful but the signature is more reserved, then he is a person with hidden scheming. A person who doesn't show his emotions or anger and can deal with big things calmly. Those who dare to break the rules, find new ways, and seek variations in handwriting are adventurous people; those who have uneven writing between lines are diplomatic and good at discovering the weaknesses of others; those who write better and better as they write are optimistic A pessimist, and a person who writes more and more downwards is a pessimist. Font size is also an expression of personality. People who write in fonts that are too large are people who are casual, overconfident and careless in their behavior; people who write in fonts that are too small are people who are observant and calculating, and people who write in too compact words have... Stingy and calculating character. In short, the above theory considers the weight and symmetry of the strokes of the characters, the edges and corners of the handwriting, the speed of writing, the frame structure of the characters, the shape, length and size of the fonts, the imitation or creativity of the characters, the height and slant of the character lines. The arrangement and combination of characteristics such as degrees can look at people's psychology, and some can even predict the future and life. Handwriting and Mental Health From a person’s handwriting, we can roughly analyze that person’s personality. For example, the strokes of a person with a strong personality will appear clean, square and hard; while for a person with a weak personality, the handwriting will be relatively weak and much softer. Yang Xiong, a Chinese writer of the Western Han Dynasty, once said: "Books are the heart. The heart draws shapes and distinguishes between evil and right in human beings." Graphologists also believe there is a significant link between handwriting and mental health. They can accurately determine the psychological problems of the writer by analyzing the strength and slope of the characters, font and character structure, spaces and blanks, signature style, etc. Graphologist Yaman divides the results of graphology research into seven categories: 1. The pressure of writing reflects the energy of human spirit and body. 2. The structure of strokes represents the writer’s attitude towards the external world. 3. The size of writing is a reflection of self-awareness. 4. The degree of continuous strokes reflects the coordination of thinking and behavior.
5. The direction of characters and character lines reflects human autonomy and social relationships. 6. Writing speed is related to the speed of human understanding. 7. The layout of the entire text reflects the writer's attitude and way of occupying the external world. Exploring personality and mental health through handwriting is a young science, but it is also an interesting and dynamic undertaking. I believe it can bring us new information in the near future. Handwriting and Thoughts Perhaps one day in the future, when you submit your neatly printed resume to the employer you are applying for, you will be asked to provide a handwritten document. Don't be surprised, because experts will analyze your handwriting so that the employer can learn more about your personality and psychological state. In ancient China, there was a saying that words are like people, and knowing people is not as good as knowing people's words. But can you really know a person through their handwriting? Not long ago, in a classroom in the Psychology Department of Beijing Normal University, I watched a demonstration by Xu Qingyuan, a handwriting psychologist: A female student wrote on the blackboard that the Red Army is not afraid of expedition difficulties, and that thousands of rivers and mountains only require two lines of large characters and a few words. Arabic numerals, Xu Qingyuan observed for a while and said: Her writing speed is fast, the lines are smooth, and the strokes are heavy. These three are harmonious and unified. It can be seen that this person is quick to talk, simple and not complicated, and can use it well even for bad things. It is difficult to be polluted when looking at it with eyes; she likes to be outspoken and harsh in criticizing others. She has a sharp mouth and a Bodhisattva heart... Xu thought about the handwriting for a while and then said: She has experienced the hardships of life and is as independent as a man; she can also be tolerant. , enthusiastic, helpful, and compassionate; she likes to do hands-on work and technician-type work, such as doctors; but she also has artistic talents, which may need to be developed through part-time work... In the end, she seemed to hesitate for a moment , Mr. Xu wrote the word literature on the blackboard. Everyone present was very surprised because the person analyzed by Xu Qingyuan was the writer Bi Shumin. Anyone who knows her knows that she once worked as a military doctor in Ali, Tibet. Bi Shumin said that Xu's analysis was still very accurate. Why can we tell a person's personality and psychological state from handwriting? Psychology professor Zheng Richang said that writing is also a behavioral expression and an unconscious psychological projection. We know that people's stable behaviors, such as speech, behavior, ways of dealing with problems, etc., all reflect people's personality characteristics. Just like everyone speaks differently, we all have different handwriting. American psychologist Ivey believes that handwriting is actually written by the brain, and what flows from the tip of the pen is actually people's subconscious mind. The complex and diverse writing movements of human arms are external behavioral manifestations of human psychological qualities. Xu Qingyuan has been studying handwriting since he was 14 years old. He told reporters that he was very slow in writing when he was a child. When he entered middle school, he suffered a lot in exams because of his slow writing. Later, in order to write faster, he practiced calligraphy for a year, and found that his personality became more cheerful and outgoing. Since then, he began to pay attention to the relationship between the handwriting of teachers and classmates and their personalities, and collected a lot of handwriting for analysis and research. When he was most depressed and confused after failing the college entrance examination, a classmate brought a note and asked him to analyze it. After reading it, he told his classmates that the person who wrote was in pain and depression, was very depressed and desperate, and was in a mental state with no relief. The classmate was shocked when he heard this and told Xu Qingyuan that this man committed suicide by drinking dichlorvos the day before yesterday because of a broken relationship. This note was written by him the day before he committed suicide. This incident gave Xu Qingyuan great stimulation and inspiration, and became a motivation for him to study the psychology of handwriting. In his research, he found that writing lines are not visual but the result of active tactile control. The tightness of holding the pen and the speed and weight of the strokes when writing will vary from person to person. Handwriting lines are unconscious records left by people while doing unconscious activities. . Starting from here, Xu Qingyuan created the theory and method of studying human mind through handwriting lines. In 1988, Xu Qingyuan founded the Guizhou Shitong Chinese Character Handwriting Psychological Identification Service Department; in July 1990, the Zunyi Qingyuan Handwriting and Psychology Research Laboratory was established. His demonstrations at exhibitions such as the China Baijue Expo caused a sensation again and again. His scientific research results on the psychological identification of handwriting also won the National Invention Silver Award. Xu Qingyuan's research on handwriting psychology was conducted in a relatively closed environment. At the same time, some quack graphologists in China were also conducting their own explorations. They did not know that graphologists were born in Italy in the early 17th century; in 1872, two systematic monographs on graphology were published in Paris, causing shock in the scientific community. At present, in some developed countries, graphology has long become a branch of psychology, and many universities have opened special courses on graphology psychology. Graphology results are widely used in psychology, medicine, talent science, criminal investigation, public relations and other fields. In France, Germany, the United States, Switzerland, Israel and other countries, many companies use handwriting analysis to select employees and make personnel arrangements. The world's first Chinese Graphology Research Institute was established in Brussels, Belgium, in February 1990. In fact, in China, graphology is an ancient science, known as physiognomy. In the literature on calligraphy, there is also a large amount of information on the psychology of handwriting. Han Yu, a literary giant in the Tang Dynasty, once said: Joy, anger, embarrassment, sorrow, pleasure, resentment, longing, drunkenness, boredom, injustice, whatever moves the heart, must be expressed in writing. However, for a long time, graphology was regarded as pseudoscience, idealism, and feudal superstition in China, and it did not receive corresponding development. In October 1994, the first Chinese Graphology Academic Symposium was held in Beijing, which meant that graphology began to go out of the world.
But so far, most of China's handwriting scholars are amateurs, except for one or two people such as Xu Qingyuan who are full-time researchers. As self-taught people, they have a lot of practical experience but lack systematic theoretical research. In the field of psychology, Hong Kong psychologist Gao Shangren and Taiwanese psychologist Yang Guoshu have both conducted relevant research, but studies by mainland scholars are still rare. Professor Zheng Richang believes that the top priority for Chinese handwriting psychology is how to theoretically improve and become professional, making it a real science.
