| Summary: | The article is devoted to the study of writing disorders and the diagnosis of the unusual state
of the writer caused by mental disorders.
The authors found that modern forensic sources pay little attention to this aspect of the
problem being highlighted. However, the scientific approach to its solution largely depends on a
comprehensive analysis of mental disorders, which should be established by the methodology of
forensic handwriting. It was determined that writing is a complex mental activity of a person, which
includes both cognitive, speech, motor, and emotional processes. Differentiating the states of the
executor of the manuscript by handwriting is a difficult task, especially in connection with some
similarity of the reflection in the manuscripts directly of the reasons that change the skill of writing, for
example, such as alcohol intoxication, a state of great excitement, stress, etc. It was stated that the
objects of handwriting expertise are handwritten texts, short notes, signatures, and even digital
markings. Depending on the specific circumstances of the case under consideration by the forensic
handwriting examination, the fact of the writing of the text by a specific person can be established or
refuted, the methods of execution of certain manuscripts, the state of a particular person at the time
of execution of the manuscript are established. The range of tasks of forensic expertise regarding the writing of persons who are in a psychopathological state are similar, but largely different, to the medical
diagnostic tasks of establishing mental disorders of a person listed in the international classification of
diseases. It is indicated that it is appropriate to refer to the information of psychiatry in order to
understand the general characteristics of the psychopathological state of a person, to form a clear idea
about its varieties and their characteristic signs - symptoms and syndromes.
The article examines the development and current state of research on writing disorders in
mental disorders, reveals the psychophysiological foundations of the writing mechanism and its
psychological features. Examples of expert research practice and experimental-psychological research
of writing disorders in patients with various mental disorders are also given. |
