When you are waiting on a phone call with a pen in your hand or have nothing to do on a train, you may probably doodle (涂鸦). Consultant Graphology (笔迹杏询师) Tracey has studied the most common doodles and their meaning in a new piece of research. Here she shares the psychology (心理学) behind those doodles.
Circles: Drawing round shapes expresses the need to love and be loved. |
Squares: If you're drawing squares, then this shows a practical (脚踏实地的) nature. |
Flowers: If your flower has a large round center, this expresses confidence and the enjoyment of a good social life. |
Hearts: Hearts have always been symbols of love. It clearly expresses that you care a lot about others' feelings, but easily get sad as well. |
Coils(线圈) : Drawing these complicated (复杂的) shapes means the doodlers have a colorful life and the ability of creativity. What unusual doodles they are! |
Webs: This kind of doodles may be unusual and complicated but drawing webs shows special personalities that are good at leading people to a special situation. |
Boxes: It's not good news for people who draw boxes. Tracey believes that while this shows great dreams, it can also be a sign of materialism (物质主义). |
