Simple/major behaviors are jerks with higher movement amplitude, or intensity (e.g., whole body jerks, single limb jerk); Complex behaviors are Movements showing complexity of action and involving more muscle groups simultaneously or violent movements, and can be seen as the enactment of dream contents.
