WRITING, IDENTITY, OTHERNESS

Abstract

Handwriting represents the expression of the Self at all levels. It can be considered as the representation of the subject on the space of the sheet, since its components can be considered expressive of the subject's learning styles. This research intends to explore the correlation between the representations that the subject has of himself and of others, and the structure of some graphic signs that, in the horizon of meaning of psychology, can be indicative of such orientations. In particular, the investigation intends to relate the results achieved in a test that detects the subjective orientation towards oneself and towards others, and the graphic signs that, on the basis of their structure, can be considered expressive of such orientations.
