Summary

This study aims to evaluate the effect of noninvasive brain stimulation in adults with ADHD symptomatology compared them with healthy adults. For this, volunteers will allocate into two groups (experimental and control), will pass through session two types of transcranial stimulation: Repetitive Transcranial MagneticsStimulation (rTMS) and transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS); considering two session types (real and sham). Attentional assessment will be carried out through specific neurocognitive tests applied before and after each session of stimulation
