Technique of drawing conclusions from a candidate's hand writing about future performance in a role is
Answer: A
Graphology is the technique of drawing conclusions about a person's personality, and by extension his likely performance, from handwriting. Physiognomy judges character from facial features, phrenology from the shape of the skull and astronomy is the scientific study of heavenly bodies, which has nothing to do with candidates' handwriting. The answer is graphology. The word 'graph' in graphology refers to writing, which is why it is the field that uses handwriting. Employers sometimes use it as an aid in selection, although its predictive value is doubtful and it is not accepted as a reliable test of future performance.
