A study reveals that writing by hand improves brain function. And Writing by hand is better for brain function research.
OSLO: Although typing on a phone or computer could be quicker than writing by hand, researchers think typing is less brain-stirring.
Media sources cite a study that was published in the journal Frontiers in Psychology and demonstrates that writing is superior over typing for brain function.
In trials on university students, researchers from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) measured the subjects’ handwriting and typing activity in the brain. The study’s findings indicate that handwriting enhances memory and learning.
