Brief Summary:
The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy of transcranial Electrical Stimulation (tES) on emotion processing of healthy participants. Meanwhile, the investigators evaluate the effect of tES on electroencephalography (EEG) of both resting and task-related signal. The hypothesis of this study is that tES can improve the cognitive function of emotion by modulating brain activity.
Detailed Description:
This is a randomized, single-blind, sham-controlled study using transcranial Electrical Stimulation (tES) for 7-day treatment. Participants were randomly assigned to transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) group, transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) group or sham-control group. Active tES comprised 20 min sessions of 1.5 mA peak-to-peak current delivered over the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, for 7 consecutive days. Sham group was administered similarly, but with current turned off after 30s. Apart from studying the effects of tES on physiology signals, subjective scale assessments and behavioral data are performed before and after the treatment.
