Cerebellar anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) improves implicit mentalizing sequence learning: A double-blind sham-controlled study.

Anodal Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (TDCS) at Fp3–Fp2 Reduces the Face Inversion Effect: Evidence Against an Expectancy Account

Background: Anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) delivered through the Fp3–Fp2 montage reduces the face inversion effect (FIE), a result now used to argue that perceptual expertise underlies face recognition. Because beliefs about brain stimulation can change behaviour in the absence of any current, th...

The Frontopolar Cortex and Decision-Making: Null Effects of Intermittent (Two-Block) Cathodal TDCS

The frontopolar cortex (FPC) has been implicated in high-level cognitive control, including model-based reasoning, cognitive branching, and the regulation of exploration–exploitation tradeoffs (Koechlin, 2020). While neuroimaging studies have provided strong correlational evidence, causal findings remain limited. In th...

Emotion-Induced Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation for Working Memory Improvement

Objective: To examine the effects of anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on working memory under different emotion-induced states. Method: A total of 180 healthy right-handed adults aged 18-35 years were assigned to a 3 (emotion: happy, neutral, sad) × 4 (stimulation: sham, 1.0 mA, 1.5 mA, 2.0 mA) bet...

Cathodal tDCS in obsessive-compulsive disorder: cognitive and neurophysiological outcomes in a double-blind sham-controlled trial

Objective This preliminary study examined the efficacy of cathodal transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) targeting the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) in reducing symptom severity, enhancing cognitive flexibility, and modulating brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) levels in individuals with obsessive-comp...

Theta-gamma transcranial alternating current stimulation and complex visuomotor training in healthy young adults.

Theta-gamma (TG) transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) is a non-invasive brain stimulation technique that can improve performance of simple motor tasks when applied over primary motor cortex (M1). However, the effects of TG tACS on performance of more complex motor tasks remain to be investigated. Forty h...
