Afferent paresis: Difficulty executing smooth, coordinated, fine movements as a result of loss of afferent (somatosensory) feedback from the muscles engaged in the motor activity. Paresis is a condition typified by a weakness of voluntary movement, or partial loss of voluntary movement or by impaired movement.

Why happening?1)Sensation and perception (amorphosynthesis)2)Attention and orientation (arousal to stimuli)Why more common in right hemisphere damage?Not compensated by left hemisphere, whereas right visual field is supported by both hemisphere?

Apraxia (from Greek praxis, an act, work, or deed) is the inability to execute learned purposeful movements, despite having the desire and the physical capacity to perform the movements.

Topographical Disorientation, also known as Topographical agnosia andTopographagnosia, is the inability to orient oneself in one's surroundings

Cross-modal matchingA scaling method used in psychophysics in which an observer matches the apparent intensities of stimuli across two sensory modalities, as when an observer adjusts the brightness of a light to indicate the loudness of a variable stimulus sound. Some authorities consider magnitude estimation and magnitude production to be forms of cross-modal matching in which one modality is the observer's perception of the number system. Also called cross-modality matching.
