Here, we investigated the online effects of short periods of anodal and cathodal tDCS on human brain activity of healthy subjects and associated hemodynamics by concurrent blood-oxygenation-level-dependent (BOLD) functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) at 3 T.
However, this study used tDCS and examined its after-effects on corticospinal excitability by comparing the amplitudes of motor-evoked potentials, and so offered an approach distinct from our own, which examines the online effects of rhythmic stimulation on entrainment of tremor [36].
Effect sizes were calculated using the Campbell Collaboration online effect size calculator, 48 employing study frequencies, means, SD and correlation coefficients.
Where primary data were not available, formulae to use P values/frequency tables to estimate d were used based on the Campbell Collaboration free online effect size calculator (available online at http://www.campbellcollaboration.org/escalc/html/EffectSizeCalculator-SMD2.php, accessed 9th September 2014).
There's even a term for it: the online disinhibition effect.
The "online disinhibition effect", as it was formally named in 2004 by the psychologist John Suler, is more about online behaviour in general than anonymity specifically.
Flaming has a technical name, the "online disinhibition effect," which psychologists apply to the many ways people behave with less restraint in cyberspace.
The psychologist John Suler refers to the online disinhibition effect: the way that the anonymity of cyberspace frees us to say and do things that we would ever consider in face-to-face communication.
One of the most common critiques of online comments cites a disconnect between the commenter's identity and what he is saying, a phenomenon that the psychologist John Suler memorably termed the "online disinhibition effect".
They call it the "online disinhibition effect": that feeling so many of us have that we can get away with saying things online that we'd never dream of saying in person.
