Graphology as Predictor of Academic Achievement

Abstract

From 50 psychology students, homogeneous samples of handwriting were obtained and a standardized personality questionnaire was applied. 10 components were scored for the scripts and the questionnaire consisted of 11 components. Components of scripts and scores on the questionnaire were the predictors and second-year grade point averages in psychology provided the criterion. A higher multiple correlation was obtained for graphology than for scores on the personality questionnaire.
