Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Active Comparator: Anodal tDCS
Anodal electrode (35 cm2 sponge electrode) placed over C3.
Cathodal electrode (35 cm2 sponge electrode) placed over the right supraorbital area.
20 minutes of stimulation at 2 mA with a 30-second phase-in and phase-out period.
|
Transcranial electrical stimulation device. A weak direct electrical current, up to 2 mA, is passed between two electrodes placed on the scalp. Electrodes are housed in 35 cm2 sponges saturated with 4 ml of saline solution (0.9 % NaCl) per side, per pad. Stimulation is phased in with a 30 second ramp up period prior to the specified stimulation period and phased-out with a ramp down of the current following the specified stimulation period. For sham stimulation, the ramp-up and ramp-down periods are retained, but stimulation is switched off for during the specified stimulation period.

Sham Comparator: Sham tDCS
Anodal electrode (35 cm2 sponge electrode) placed over C3.
Cathodal electrode (35 cm2 sponge electrode) placed over the right supraorbital area.
Stimulation was phased in for 30 seconds up to 2 mA and then switched off.
Stimulation was again phased in for 30 seconds following 20 minutes of no stimulation.
