Interventions

DEVICE

Mutitarget tDCS

Subjects will receive 20 minutes of active transcranial direct current stimulation at 2mA applied to DLPFC and M1 alternately for ten consecutive weekdays, with each target stimulated for 5 sessions.

DEVICE

Single-target tDCS

Subjects will receive 20 minutes of active transcranial direct current stimulation at 2mA applied to M1 for ten consecutive weekdays.

DEVICE

Sham tDCS

Subjects will receive 20 minutes of sham transcranial direct current stimulation. Ramps up and down will be applied for 15 seconds each at the beginning and end of the session. The current will be 0 mA during the interval between the initial and final ramps. Subjects will undergo stimulation once a day for ten consecutive weekdays.
