The following analysis is provided from one of our top handwriting analysts as an illustration of a critical examination of a handwriting sample and what can be extracted from a careful observation of a writing. This month's sample is from Mahatma Gandhi and is written in narrative and personality profile style. Please pay attention to the description of handwriting indicators and what they signify. Please note that not all analyses will be this complete or thorough.
Analyses come in different sizes and shapes and have different purposes.
An analysis written by a student may be a good analysis but it would not be expected to be this in-depth. This report is a personality analysis not a personnel report. Please further note that the samples used for this analysis are copies and, as such, lack some indicators that a complete analysis must have knowledge of. Wherever possible the analyst should work from original samples. The handwriting analysis introduction is a regular feature of this web page and will be updated on a monthly basis.
