Summary
This study looked at how brain waves in the front part of the brain affect whether people tend to approach or avoid things. Researchers used a special technique that combines brain stimulation (TMS) and brain recording (EEG) to see how timing of stimulation changes behavior. 26 healthy adults participated. The goal was to understand the brain's role in decision-making, not to treat any disease.
