Study Summary

The overall objective of this study is to investigate the neural correlate in retrieval memory task. The aim of the study is to understand the undergoing changes in late positive ERP component during retrieval memory task when stimulating the posterior cingulate cortex (PCC) with High Definition Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (HD-tDCS).

Primary Outcome

Participants had to learn an association between a face and a name. The face-name association memory task was divided into (1) an encoding phase, (2) a consolidation phase, and (3) a retrieval phase. During the encoding phase, participants studied 60 successively presented face-name pairs. Participants were instructed to assess the gender of each face shown to keep participants focused on the task. The encoding phase lasted approximately 5 minutes. This is followed by a consolidation phase where
