Brief Summary:
Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is an effective treatment for MDD, but the overall effect sized of the treatment is equivalent to antidepressant pharmacotherapy, and responses are highly variable. Given that rTMS is usually given to patients who have failed pharmacotherapy, a more effective alternative is needed.
Therefore, this study will combine computerized cognitive training (CCT) during standard rTMS treatments and assess its feasibility, tolerability, and changes in cognitive control performance and depression symptoms.
Participants that agree to the study and meet eligibility will receive standard rTMS (generally 25-36 daily treatments) along with CCT (starting on day 5 of treatment until the pre-taper treatment). In addition, to CCT participants will be asked to complete assessments before and after treatment
Detailed Description:
This project will also have a registry for participants that are approached to be in the clinical trial with the CCT but don't wish to be enrolled. Although the registry will be available for these participants, the information entered into this ClinicalTrials.gov registration will reflect the clinical trial portion of this project.
