Brief Summary:
This is a study to investigate if a device that temporarily changes brain activity repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation rTMS might be used to change how healthy participants make decisions This study involves 2 visits to MUSC that will each take between 2-3 hours This study is not a treatment study but it could help inform studies investigating treatment in the future Participants in this study will be compensated for their time
Detailed Description:
This study aims to investigate whether a single session of excitatory repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation rTMS compared to electrical sham stimulation to the medial prefrontal cortex mPFC facilitates rational decision making Our prior data suggests that decisions are biased depending on if the available options are presented with a negative or positive connotation even in the case of mathematical equivalence Work by us and others has demonstrated that even if both options are equal the negatively framed choice is most often avoided
