Allokinesia

Allokinesia

Allokinesia is a motor response in the wrong limb, or transposition of the intended movement to the contralateral side; the movement may also be in the wrong direction. This may be the motor system counter-part of alloesthesia, and is seen with right hemisphere lesions as part of a neglect syndrome.
