Arousal-related Memory Following Theta Burst Stimulation.

NCT07565194 · Status: NOT_YET_RECRUITING · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 120

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Aim 1: Active cTBS to IPS will disrupt arousal-dependent temporal memory, reflected in reduced relative order discrimination accuracy and expanded temporal distance estimates, relative to sham.

Aim 2: Active iTBS to IPS will enhance arousal-dependent temporal memory, reflected in improved relative order discrimination accuracy and compressed temporal distance estimates, relative to sham.

Aim 3: Baseline physiological arousal, trait anxiety (STAI), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), trauma symptoms (PCL-5), and individualized E-field strength will predict the magnitude of TBS-induced behavioral changes in temporal memory.

DEVICE

Sham TMS

Theta Burst Stimulation (TBS): TBS will be delivered using a MagVenture MagPro X100 stimulator with a Cool-B65 A/P coil. One session of 600 pulses will be delivered per visit.
