transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS)
"Active tDCS: A neuroConn DC-Stimulator Plus will apply a constant direct current (1.0 mA to 2.0 mA via 5x7 electrode) to the left dorsal lateral prefrontal cortex. Each participant will receive anodal stimulation for a period of 20 minutes. For anodal stimulation over the left DLPFC, the anodal electrode will be placed over the left F3 and the cathodal electrode over the right supraorbital area (international EEG 10/20 system).~Sham tDCS: During sham tDCS, a 1.0 mA to 2.0 mA current will be delivered for approximately 30 seconds before being extinguished over a course of seconds. Again, the anodal electrode will be placed over the left F3 and the cathodal electrode over the right supraorbital area. Most participants cannot distinguish between real and sham tDCS."
