Excitatory and inhibitory after-effects after repetitive magnetic transcranial stimulation (rTMS) in normal subjects.

abstract：:Abundant evidence has revealed that social observation could enhance people's norm-enforcement behaviors to norm violators. However, whether such enhancement is strategically reputation-based without changes on awareness of social norms or it is accompanied with strengthened perception of norm violations remains uncle...
