-'''Finger Picking''' is a technique that uses the right-hand fingers to pluck the strings instead of using a pick.  This offers a different tone than using a pick, avoiding many of the transients and generally delivering a darker tone.  It is also useful to more easily arpeggiate chords as well as playing intervals that do not use adjacent strings.

 Finger-picked guitar notation often includes markings above/below the tab/sheet music indicating which finger on the right hand to use.  These take the same form as left-hand fingering for fretting:

 Where liner notes do not specify whether the markings pertain to left-hand fretting vs. right-hand finger-picking, it is usually obvious what they refer to.  For example, if a marking is given over an open string, then it clearly refers to finger-picking, as your left-hand doesn't fret an open string.  If still ambiguous, actually trying to play it should reveal what's going on - the markings may make a seemingly simple left-hand fretting difficult to impossible...because the markings actually refer to the right-hand.
