研究组 & 干预措施
ano-M1-cat-SO5 tDCS
Participants will receive active transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) (active tDCS). The electrodes will be placed on left M1 for anodic stimulation and on the right supraorbital region for cathodic stimulation on 5 consecutive days.
干预措施: Active tDCS (Device)
ano-M1-cat-SO10 tDCS
Participants will receive active transcranial direct current stimulation (active tDCS). The electrodes will be placed on left M1 for anodic stimulation and on the right supraorbital region for cathodic stimulation on 10 consecutive days.
干预措施: Active tDCS (Device)
Sham tDCS
Participants who receive stimulation of the simulated type (sham tDCS), following the protocol of the ano-M1-cat-SO5 group.
干预措施: Sham tDCS (Device)
