Study Summary

This trial will use transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to study how different brain regions affect visual perception. TMS is a technique with well-understood risks that can be minimized by following safety guidelines. The study will focus on how the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) and the anterior prefrontal cortex (aPFC) contribute to confidence generation and metacognition. Data will be collected from healthy adults.
