dc.description.abstractBehavioural studies make use of handwritten letters’ characteristics like strokes, roundedness, etcetera. In consequence, Fisher et al. (2010) studying brain activation during rejected love, noticed typical pre-motor activity patterns, as suggested by irregular writing patterns as well, due to basal ganglia dysfunction (Mergl et al., 2004). A short historical text written in a presumably depressed mood was checked on such characteristics in the light of hypothesised finger-, and hand movements possibly related to pre-motor activities in e.g. unrequited love. Down-strokes in particular require coordination of extrinsic, but especially intrinsic hand- and finger- muscles. Rounded forms ask for well-coordinated interphalangeal joint motion. We conclude that no basal ganglia dysfunction was present.-

dc.description.notesState-of-the-art presentation by an invited "Special Poster" at this International 3-days Conference. The present study was originally initiated on the occasion of a 2006 project kick-off meeting on : “The Chant of the Secular Clergy in the Low Countries: Music and Liturgy at the Collegiate Church in Tongeren”. During the project, linguistic contributions by various university colleagues were also taken into account-
