The doctrine of apraxia, which began only 9 years ago with the research of Liepmann, now illuminates with sufficient clarity many phenomena in the field of motor disorders of neuropsychic origin. Assuming that they are caused by a disruption in the connection between the motor area and other areas of the cerebral cortex, researchers often use the Wernicke scheme, which depicts the relationship between our consciousness and the outside world, to analyze practical disorders. Dr. Nikitin, in his article, explains this scheme and, having noted a gap in it, suggests making an appropriate insert.
