Transcranial direct current stimulation decreases P3 amplitude and inherent del...
Mendes, Augusto José; Galdo-Álvarez, Santiago; Calvo, Alberto Lema; Carvalho, Sandra; Leite, JorgeThe inability to wait for a target before initiating an action (i.e., waiting impulsivity) is one of the main features of addictive behaviors. Current interventions for addiction, such as transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS), have been suggested to improve this inability. Nonetheless, the effects of tDCS on waiting impulsivity and underlying electrophysiological (EEG) markers are still not clear. Ther...

Carvalho, Sandra; Sampaio, Adriana; Mendes, Augusto José; Lema, Alberto; Vieira, Daniela; Gonçalves, Óscar F.; Leite, JorgeTranscranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) over the Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex (DLPFC) has already been shown to decrease craving for food. However, it remains unclear whether a single session of tDCS combined with a cognitive bias modification (CBM) task may affect explicit and implicit measures of craving for chocolate. Fifty-one healthy volunteers (38 females; mean age: 22.12 +/- 3.38) were randomly ...
An application to enrich the study of auditory emotion recognition
Rodrigues, Paulo Renato Dias; Mendes, Augusto José; Carneiro, Davide Rua; Amorim, Carla Maria Gonçalves Costa; Pinheiro, Ana P.; Novais, PauloThe ability to recognize emotions in spoken words is central in human communication and social relationships. When studying one's ability to perceive emotions, the standard paradigm is to have listeners choose which one of several emotion words best characterizes linguistically neutral utterances made by actors attempting to portray various emotional states. Usually, generic experiment control software are used...
