(I realize this term is already in proz glossary, translated as "impulsive behavior". But I am not sure this is right so I am asking it again).
In German medical report, neurology section:
"Die affektive Modulationsfähigkeit war nicht vermindert, das Antriebsverhalten unauffällig."
Appreciate any help on this. I was thinking "drive behavior" might work, but googling shows references to driving car. To me as native speaker, "impulsive behavior" has a negative connotation, but perhaps in medical English it has another meaning.
Thanks!
