Dissimulation in Handwriting PDF

This document discusses various handwriting indicators related to dissimulation, or hiding one's true intentions and feelings. Some key signs mentioned include cover strokes that suggest repression, self-deception, and manipulation of the truth. Arcades and loops can indicate a hidden agenda, scheming, or being secretive. A wavy baseline may point to unreliability and inconsistency. Fragmented strokes in the upper zone could reflect insecurity, anxiety, or reluctance to look at the past. Coiled forms in the middle zone may signify selfishness, denial, and an inability to accept the past. An inconsistent signature also hints at concealing one's true self from others.
