| Abstract: | The relationships among handwriting rate, academic achievement, and the completion of written assignments were investigated in a sample of 119 sixth-grade students. Each student completed instruments measuring rate of rapid and casual handwriting, legibility, copying rate, completion of written assignments, and self-concept. Results indicated that handwriting rate was a significant predictor of language achievement and assignment completion; that secure/insecure and defensive/aggressive elements from the measure of self-concept were significant predictors of handwriting rate; and that IQ, used as a control variable, accounted for a significant proportion of the variation throughout the study. Educational implications of the findings are also discussed. (Author/AA) |
