Treatment Details

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
Compared to sham condition, activation of the left DLPFC prior to EF training will temporarily increase working memory performance as measured by the Sternberg Spatial Working Memory Test
Secondary outcome measures
Compared to sham condition, activation of the left DLPFC prior to EF training will temporarily increase fronto-parietal gamma power and theta-gamma coupling during working memory demands.
