During the TMS-induced disruption of the lip area d′ was significantly decreased compared with the pre condition (pre vs. post1: t17 = 2.74, P = 0.01, Cohen's d = 0.65).
During TMS-induced disruption of the hand area the response bias decreased relative to the pre condition (post1 vs. pre: t16 = −3,53, P < 0.01, Cohen's d = 0.85).
For the pre condition, the discrimination thresholds assessed in the target and the sham group did not differ (One-way ANOVA, factors GROUP*FINGER, F 3,60) =0.371, p = 0.829).
During the pre condition the participants were rather conservative in selecting "different" responses, that is, they were biased towards "same" responses.
In line with this prediction, we found that both d′ and slope values were reduced in post1 condition relative to the pre condition, and did not differ significantly between post2 and pre conditions.
