Influence of transdermal current flow in tDCS-induced cutaneous adverse events
… of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) are portability, ease-of-use, and tolerability; with adverse events limited to transient and mild cutaneous sensations (e.g. perception of burning, itching, and tingling) and erythema. However, the fundamental questions remain about the …

No tDCS Augmented Working Memory Training Benefit in Undergraduates Rewarded with Course Credit
… Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) paired with WM training is more consistent than either alone. We have reported that tDCS targeting frontal and/or parietal regions enhanced theta phase locking, reduced alpha power, and strengthened theta-gamma phase amplitude coupling. …

HD-tDCS over Frontal Cortex and Neuropsychological Functioning in Cognitively Impaired Older Adults
… is transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), which is a non-invasive brain stimulation technique aimed at altering neuronal activity in the brain. The frontal cortex serves as a brain circuitry hub connected to a variety of cortical and subcortical structures. Within the frontal cortex …

The Role of the DLPFC in Bilingual and Monolingual Switching: Evidence from MVPA and tDCS
… used transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) to directly alter the functioning of the left or right DLPFC for language control and non-linguistic control. In this study, left DLPFC stimulation hurt bilingual performance on the non-linguistic control task, but helped overall performance …

The use of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) to explore how risk characteristics influence athletic pacing.
… as measures of risk behaviour and attitude, and tDCS as a risk modulation technique). The experimental chapter introduces the BART risk behaviour measure along with an already established measure of risk attitude in pacing research (the DOSPERT) to a time trial pacing context and demonstrates how …

Ist der Abbau kognitiver Funktionen im Alter unveränderbar? Modulation von Wortflüssigkeitsleistung und Sprachlateralisation durch transkranielle Gleichstromstimulation (tDCS)
Alltägliche Phänomene, die Probleme in der Kommunikation zwischen zwei Menschen hervorrufen (wie beispielsweise temporäre Gedächtnisprobleme oder Wortfindungsstö- rungen), können grundsätzlich in allen Altersklassen auftreten. Im Laufe des physiologischen Alterungsprozesses nehmen diese aber, auch …

Effects of Transcranial Direct-Current Stimulation on Motor Learning in the Developing Brain
Transcranial direct-current stimulation (tDCS) is a form of non-invasive brain stimulation applied in both healthy and clinical populations. Application of weak current induces electric fields at the neuronal level, and may lead to behavioral effects such as enhanced motor learning when paired with …

Effects of weak electric fields on long-term synaptic plasticity
<p>Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a technique where a weak direct electrical current is applied to the scalp with the goal of stimulating the brain. There is tremendous interest in the use of tDCS for treating brain disorders and improving brain function. However, the effects of …
