Brief Summary:
Multimodal study (Behavior, TMS, EEG) combining a sham-controlled intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) intervention with an additional-singleton task and EEG to evaluate whether left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) stimulation enhances cognitive control and modulates maladaptive attention processes in MDD and whether the effects are influenced by neuronavigated versus manual (Beam F3 method) localization of the stimulation site.
Detailed Description:
Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) is associated with impaired selective attention and disrupted top-down control, yet the underlying neurophysiological mechanisms remain poorly understood. The present double-blind, sham-controlled trial will test whether iTBS over the left DLPFC, an FDA-approved rTMS site, can restore top-down distractor suppression in MDD (active-iTBS: n = 30; sham-iTBS: n = 30). Neuronavigated iTBS will be delivered across sessions, and effects will be assessed on the behavioral level (additional singleton paradigm) and the neurophysiological level (using concomitant EEG). Key aim of the project is to compare neuronavigated (active-iTBS) versus manual (Beam F3 method, sham-iTBS group) localization of the stimulation site.
