Quantitative description of the relationship between the enhancement of distraction-suppression and brain local state alteration after transcranial direct current stimulation.

ABSTRACT: Anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) over the left dorsal lateral prefrontal cortex (lDLPFC) can improve distraction suppression ability, possibly by distantly regulating the connection properties of several large-scale brain networks and local brain state changes. However, little is known about the local state alteration that tDCS can induce in distant but task-related regions and the relationship between performance enhancement and local state alteration in potentially related regions, resulting in inefficient and uncertain tDCS regulation. We aimed to examine the alteration of brain local state before and after tDCS and its relationship with performance enhancement. With the within-subject design, the participants received anodal (1.5 mA) and sham tDCS at F3 (lDLPFC) fo
