Interventions
Transcranial Dirrect Current Stimulation
tDCS will deliver direct current through rubber electrodes in saline-soaked sponges. Device sends a low-level current from the positive electrode, the anode, to the negative electrode, the cathode. Direct current will be transferred by a saline-soaked pair of surface sponge electrodes (35cm2) and delivered by a specially developed, battery-driven, constant current stimulator with a maximum output of 10mA. The anode will be placed over the LDLPFC and the cathode over the contralateral supra-orbital area.
