Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>The main study parameter is reversal learning performance (e.g., how fast<br /><br>participants notice and implement a change in reward-punishment contingencies)<br /><br>as a function of cTBS condition during a computer task. </p><br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>The secondary study parameters are risk-taking as a function of cTBS condition<br /><br>during a computer task, and the moderating effects of state anger, state<br /><br>anxiety, trait aggression, trait impulsivity and vagally mediated HRV on<br /><br>risk-taking and reversal learning performance by cTBS condition.</p><br>
