Graphology is a branch of science used to try to determine a person’s individual characteristics and details about that person based on a person’s handwriting. It was first started by the French clergyman-archaeologist Jean-Hippolyte Michon in 1871 and its use area has expanded in Europe over time. The science of graphology is a useful method that can also be used to evaluate people’s emotional development, give people career advice for the future, and even provide psychological analysis. For example, it is known that many international company managers today use the science of graphology to evaluate the personal characteristics of job applicants during or after the interview stage. However, there are also criticisms that the science of graphology cannot always produce clear results. To put it more clearly, in the science of evidence (criminology), a broad consensus on the validity of graphology studies has not been reached. Based on this point, the benefits and shortcomings of graphology were analyzed in the study and evaluations were made about the place and importance of graphology in archival science. In addition, the impact of graphology science on archiving science has also been evaluated by focusing on the connection between criminology science. The study, which focuses on the contribution of graphology science to archiving and information and document management sciences in particular, was completed by making various suggestions to support future academic studies.
