tDCS-Sham
Sham tDCS will involve an identical electrode montage, with stimulation ceasing after a 30-second ramp-up period to provide equivalent scalp sensation.
tDCS-Active
tDCS was delivered using the anode electrode positioned over the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFE) and the cathode electrode at supra orbital right region. The electrodes were placed into a 25-35 cm2 square sponge immersed in saline solution for better current conductivity. Current density used was 2 mA and electrodes attached to the scalp were sustained by rubber band.
Cognitive training
. The cognitive training consisted of an online application of a Dual N-Back task .The Training will last for 8 days.
