[Dysgraphia]

Abstract

Dysgraphia (or handwriting difficulties) is common. It is often associated with neurodevelopmental disorders. In France, it is confirmed by the BHK test. Associated anxiety must be taken into account, as many young people can fall into vicious circles of avoidance. Subtypes of dysgraphia are found according to underlying neurodevelopmental difficulties (motor, visuo-spatial or reading difficulties).
