Thank you for this article, although handwriting is a fading skill. It’s a shame. I haven’t used cursive since the 6th grade. I remember fancying myself my own writing style. This article is so true of my personality. I print all uppercase accept “e”. I don’t know what that says about myself, but the rest is spot on.

In reply to Terry Turner. Cursive Writing is taught in 28 schools in the United States. These are the latest stats. It is about to be taught in 10 more, as of this report.

What about print in a letter. My childs best friend is 17 and lost her mom at a young age. She only has a letter her mom wrote to her in a scrap book. She asked me to analyze it. Are there any tips anyone might have for me? As the reasons behind print vs cursive don’t really apply. Clearly she believed her daughter might read it before she knew cursive.

In reply to Casper. In CA also. This is a shame. It's not just that cursive may feel like it's not used as much, but they forget it teaches kids eye hand control and dexterity.

In reply to Jonny. Really? I thought most people could. I could tell the gender of someone by their writing before I knew anything about graphology and I was pretty accurate. I can't tell you what exactly it was but I could tell.

I had a bad head injury and ever since I cant seem to write more then a sentence or two before I swap back and forth with print and cursive, even mixing the two in single words. Is there any way to fight this new instinct?

Unfortunately, cursive is no longer being taught and has not been taught in public schools for quite a while now. So can one interpret anything from another’s “choice” in writing in print when most people do not even know how to write in cursive? In other words, I think the article should be edited to include; because of the decline in the use of cursive writing, when one interprets another’s handwriting, they should know whether the person knows how to write in cursive before making any solid interpretations.

Hello,
Where I live in Phoenix, Arizona they stopped teaching cursive in school. My youngest daughter, now 21 years old, only knows it because I took it upon myself to teach her by printing my own lessons out.
Is this the case elsewhere in the United States?
Also, how precise can you get with non-cursive graphology?

In reply to Ann Shaffer. I write in all caps sometimes if I'm making a work document. I'm female.

Howdy. Am encountering a few personalities who have a great variation in styles. Whether mood changes, artistic impression or disguising of some sort, it is interesting that specific attributes recur in their different style hands. Brain writing for sure. Thanks for the excellent site with your generous commentaries. You are opening the portals to our character. A mirror to see oneself.
