Peranan analisis tulisan tangan dalam mengenal pasti kompetensi dan komitmen pensyarah

The purpose of this study was to discuss and explain the role of handwriting analysis in obtaining the competence and the organizational commitment of the lecturers. This is because the selection processes conducted so far could not obtain the competence and the organizational commitment of the lecturers. This is also evidenced by many lecturers nowadays holding low functional positions. The research method was the qualitative method. The data was collected from two groups. The first group consisted of lecturers who did not use handwriting analysis and the second group consisted of lecturers who used handwriting analysis. The data was analyzed using the Handwriting Wizard Software and the Handwriting Personality Software. The results of both softwares were then verified by a Graphologist through interviews. Furthermore, for the final analysis, Nvivo 11 was used. The results showed that there are: (a) types of writing that describe the competence of the lecturers, (b) types of handwriting that describe the organizational commitment of the lecturers, and (c) roles of handwriting analysis in gaining competence and organizational commitment. This is evidenced by the significant differences between the lecturers that used handwriting analysis and the lecturers that did not use handwriting analysis. The lecturers that used handwriting analysis had better competence and organizational commitment than those that did not use handwriting analysis. This was proven when the lecturers that used handwriting analysis were capable of achieving high functional positions in a relatively brief period than those who did not use handwriting analysis. Therefore, it is proposed that in future handwriting analysis should be used in the selection process in order to gain the expected competence and organizational commitment so as to achieve good performance.
