Brief Summary
The hypothesis of the study is to investigate how different trm (tES) methods (transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation, tACS, and transcranial Random Noise Stimulation, tRNS) applied at different stimulation frequencies and networks can modulate the predictive mechanisms in human perception and cognition. This is an interventional, monocentric, cross-sectional randomized, single-blinded study on healthy adult volunteers, recruited through online advertisements, flyers and oral transmission. Volunteers will be recruited from the general population of young adults.
