Interventions
DEVICE

transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS)

In tDCS, direct electrical currents at the intensity of interest (2 mA for example) are generated by an electrical stimulator and are noninvasively delivered to the scalp through a pair of saline-soaked sponge electrodes (7×5 cm).

DEVICE

transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS)

In tACS, alternating electrical currents at the frequency of interest (8 Hz for example) are generated by an electrical stimulator and are noninvasively delivered to the scalp through a pair of saline-soaked sponge electrodes (7×5 cm).
