Sentence examples for task stimulation from inspiring English sources

Secondly, tactile stimulation in the scanner was provided by using a non-specific and unrelated tactile task (stimulation using a loofa brush).

A constant current intensity of 2 mA (current density of 0.06 mA/cm2) intensity was applied for approximately 10 minutes (according to the duration of the task – stimulation was ended when the task was completed).

This lateralized effect is consistent with previous study by Beck et al. (2006) showing that, in a change detection task, stimulation of right parietal, but not the left, cortex results in longer participants' RTs compared to non-stimulated conditions.

This discrepancy between results may reflect the different tasks, stimulation parameters, sample sizes and study designs used.

However, in comparison to a voluntary finger tapping task without stimulation, anodal tDCS during finger tapping resulted in a decrease in the BOLD response in the supplementary motor area (SMA).

In the checkerboard task, visual stimulation was associated with a large and highly significant activation cluster in the occipital cortex.

Further testing revealed that ventral sites remained important for the feature-difference task: LO stimulation after training remained disruptive for feature-difference judgments.

Behavioural data were not reported for the task during stimulation and an intracerebral reference electrode was used, limiting direct comparison with the present study.

On these 10 trials, to ensure the participants were capable of performing the task during stimulation, they were required to achieve a mean RT equal to or faster than that achieved in their behavioral practice.

In the absence of effects, it is uncertain whether the method itself lacks the potential for cognitive enhancement, or whether the task and/or stimulation site may be irrelevant for the cognitive function in question.
