Continuous theta-burst stimulation demonstrates language-network-specific causal effects on syntactic processing by Chenyang Gao, Junjie Wu, Yao Cheng, Yuming Ke, Xingfang Qu, Mingchuan Yang, Gesa Hartwigsen, Luyao Chen

“…Contrasted with sham cTBS, change percentage of accuracy rates (ΔACCR%), reaction times (ΔRT%), and coefficient of variation (ΔCV%) were calculated and compared across conditions. First-order behavioral results showed a significantly higher ΔCV% after stimulating IFG + pTL compared to stimulating the IFG + SPL, indicating that syntactic processing became more unstable. …”
