Thibault Asselborn; Wafa Johal; Bolat Tleubayev; Zhanel Zhexenova; Pierre Dillenbourg; Catherine McBride; Anara Sandygulova – npj Science of Learning, 2021
Do handwriting skills transfer when a child writes in two different scripts, such as the Latin and Cyrillic alphabets?

To answer these questions, 190…
