Conditions
Interventions
High frequency transcranial random noise
High frequency tRNS is described as a non-invasive form of brain stimulation that uses a low-intensity, alternating current applied directly to the head through scalp electrodes.
Sham high frequency transcranial random noise
In the sham condition, tRNS was delivered only during the ramp-up and ramp-down periods (30s); no current was delivered during the 30-minute intervention.
