Interventions

DEVICE

Vagus nerve stimulation via tragus

The device will send stimulus intensity of around 0.5mA via tragus in the left ear (based on participants' subjective report), delivered with a pulse width of 0.5 ms at 25 Hz. Stimulation will be active for 30 seconds, followed by a break of 30 seconds.

DEVICE

Sham stimulation via earlobe

The device will send stimulus intensity of around 0.5mA via the earlobe in the left ear (based on participants' subjective reports), delivered with a pulse width of 0.5 ms at 25 Hz. Stimulation will be active for 30 seconds, followed by a break of 30 seconds.
