Zapping the brain to ease social fears?
NCT ID NCT07099521
Summary
This study tested whether a gentle, non-invasive brain stimulation technique could help reduce negative thinking patterns in young adults with social anxiety. Researchers worked with 74 participants aged 18-24 who had significant social anxiety symptoms. They used a method called high-definition transcranial direct current stimulation (HD-tDCS) to see if it could change how the brain processes threatening social information and potentially ease anxiety.
