Cathodal tDCS
"Volunteers will be submitted to 1,0 mA cathodal stimulation during experiment. The stimulation will be applied through a pair of saline-soaked surface sponge electrodes for 20 minutes, with a 10s ramp up and down. The 4,5 x 5,0 cm active electrode will be placed over the crossing point between Fz-T3 and F7-Cz and the 12 x 5 cm return electrode will be placed over Fp2 according to the 10-20 EEG system."
Anodal tDCS
"1,0mA anodal stimulation will be applied through a pair of saline-soaked surface sponge electrodes for 20 minutes, with a 10s ramp up and down. The 4,5 x 5,0 cm active electrode will be placed over the crossing point between Fz-T3 and F7-Cz and the 12 x 5 cm return electrode will be placed over Fp2 according to the 10-20 EEG system."
Sham tDCS
"1,0 mA anodal stimulation will be applied through a pair of saline-soaked surface sponge electrodes for 30 seconds, with a 10s ramp up and down. The 4,5 x 5,0 cm active electrode will be placed over the crossing point between Fz-T3 and F7-Cz and the 12 x 5 cm return electrode will be placed over Fp2 according to the 10-20 EEG system. The participant will not know when the stimulator is turned off and will continue to perform the experimental task as in the other groups."
