Interventions

  • Sham device — DEVICE
    Intervention which uses an inactive form of stimulation via electrodes on the scalp.
  • STARSTIM Device in-phase — DEVICE
    Intervention that uses the Starstim tES device to introduce transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) in the form of in-phase theta (\~3.5 to \~7.5 Hz) via electrodes on the scalp.
  • STARSTIM Device anti-phase — DEVICE
    Intervention that uses the Starstim tES device to introduce transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) in the form of anti-phase stimulation via electrodes on the scalp.

Study Details

This study aims to clarify relations between brain oscillations and two cognitive functions: cognitive control and memory.
