Spanish to English translations [PRO]
Medical - Psychology / neuropsychological tests

Spanish term or phrase: praxias

the reference is to a grouping of neuropsychological tests: un factor incluye los test de función ejecutiva y praxias.

I have found the definition of praxias (in Spanish) but not even the word in English. Perhaps "motor skills"? Doesn't sound technical enough.
