Interventions
DEVICE

TBS-EEG

Theta-burst stimulation (TBS) over the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) synchronized with the ongoing electroencephalographic (EEG) oscillations in the theta (3-7 Hz) range at a suprathreshold pulse intensity (up to 120% rMT).

DEVICE

TBS-EEG / Spatial Control

Theta-burst stimulation (TBS) over the postcentral gyrus, synchronized with the ongoing electroencephalographic (EEG) oscillations in the theta (3-7 Hz) range at a suprathreshold pulse intensity (up to 120% rMT).

DEVICE

TBS / Temporal Control

Theta-burst stimulation (TBS) over the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) at a suprathreshold pulse intensity (up to 120% rMT).

DEVICE

TBS-EEG / Dose Control

"Theta-burst stimulation (TBS) similar to the TBS-EEG condition but at a subthreshold pulse intensity (up to 80% rMT)."
