VARIABILITY IN HUMAN HANDWRITINGS: AN INDIAN UNDERSTANDING
Journal Title: International Journal of Humanities and Social Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 4
Abstract
Handwriting is a complex neuromuscular task that imprints the brain impulses by use of hand with a writing instrument onto a surface. Peculiar to humans, writing aids to communicate oral efforts, beliefs, and traditions among individuals in the form of graphics. Handwriting, as a behavioral trait, is frequently and extensively utilized in personal identification but identification of ethnicity solely on the basis of handwriting is a rather unexplored horizon. The former perspective is strongly associated to a biometric system and forensic handwriting identification but the latter perspective dwells into an anthropological domain. Thus in this paper anthropo-forensic approach has been proposed to assess the ethnic identity of the writers on the basis of examination of handwriting attributes.
