Graphology, or handwriting analysis, is the study of handwriting with the aim of inferring a person's personality traits, character, or psychological state from features like letter shape, slant, and pressure. It has historically been used in some hiring practices, forensic document examination, and personal development contexts, though it is generally regarded by mainstream psychology as a pseudoscience lacking rigorous empirical support. Enthusiasts and practitioners are drawn to it as a tool for self-insight or as a niche investigative technique.
