Study Summary
21 healthy control participants will be recruited. On Day 1 they will complete reward-guided decision making tasks and questionnaires followed by a functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scan. On Days 2 and 3 they will receive repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) targeting a specific part of the brain called the dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (dACC) or sham stimulation, and will then repeat a subset of the same decision making tasks and fMRI sequences. If brain stimulation modifies decision making and dACC activity, it could represent a novel way of treating patients with neural circuit deficits that impede motivated behavior. Of particular relevance to the current trial, this rTMS study will run in parallel with a study of apathy (i.e., diminished motivation) in patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI), with the goal of eventually leading to a patient-centered trial of rTMS treatment for this disruptive neuropsychiatric symptom.
