Evaluation of the sensorimotor system and determination of possible deficits are crucial for a proper approach. In the present paper, frequently used methods and their outcomes are discussed. However, the related terms are often misused in the relevant literature. To avoid misunderstandings, accurate definition of these terms is mandatory.
