An involuntary action is one which occurs without the conscious choice of an organism. If it occurs specifically in response to a stimulus, it will be known as a reflex.

Involuntary actions are opposite of voluntary actions that occur because of free will. Involuntary actions may or may not occur with the awareness of the organism performing it.
