| Sign | | slow involuntary writing and twisting movements |
| Symptoms | | objective findings |
| Positive Sign | | Motor, left side paresis, spasticity, abnormal synergies of movement |
| Negative Sign | | muscle weakness |

| Athetosis | | Presence of abnormal behaviors |
| Dystonia | | subjective findings |
| Hemiballismus | | velocity dependent |
| Dyskinesia (Tardive) | | inability to perceive and integrate stimulus on one side of the body or extrapersonal space |

| Ideational | | involuntary, rapid, irregular, and jerky movements |
| Hemispatial neglect | | stroke due to release of blood into the extravascular space |
| Topographical disorientation | | muscle paralysis |
| Apraxia | | stroke due to lack of blood flow |
| Wernicke's Area | | sustained muscle contractions, at times can be a co contraction of agonist and antagonist |
| Broca’s Area | | inability to remember the relationship of one place in relation to another. |
| Test for level of consciousness | | inability to correctly imitate hand gestures and voluntarily pantomime tool use, e.g. pretend to brush one's hair |
| Ischemia stroke | | inability to initiate a movement |
