Summary/Abstract: Handwriting is one of the most complex human activities, since it combines simultaneous work of various brain and motor centers, which develop during every single activity and a child’s relation with others. The level of reaching development of these centers and their functions reflects itself in all activities, mostly in the graphic one. Furthermore, emotions and psycho-physical processes are expressed in complicated and precise motion, so necessary in the process of handwriting. Hence, long states of psychical tension emerging from emotions and relations with other people may result in various degrees of muscle tension, including the lack of fluency in their work, which in consequence impacts the image of handwriting, often being one of the causes of dysgraphia.
