The Effect of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation of the Prefrontal Cortex on Behavior

Study Overview

This experiment involves receiving transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS), a non-invasive technique by which very weak electric currents are applied to the scalp to learn more about the relationship between prefrontal cortex activity and behavior. You will be asked to respond to a series of questionnaires and tasks measuring behaviors, including antisocial behaviors, and psychological characteristics. Heart rate will also be recorded during a 2-minute period. Participation will involve one testing session and a short web-based follow-up survey to be completed the following day.
