Intensity dependent effect of cognitive training on motor cortical plasticity and cognitive performance in humans.

abstract：:Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) using intensities ≤ 2 mA on physical and cognitive outcomes has been extensively investigated. Studies comparing the effects of different intensities of tDCS have yielded mixed results and little is known about how higher intensities (> 2 mA) affect outcomes. This study e...
