Mind wandering is an ubiquitous phenomenon in everyday life. In the cognitive neurosciences,
mind wandering has been associated with several distinct neural processes, most …

The role of the default-mode network (DMN) in the emergence of mind wandering and task-unrelated
thought has been studied extensively. In parallel work, mind wandering has been …

Mind wandering reflects the shift in attentional focus from task-related cognition driven by
external stimuli toward self-generated and internally-oriented thought processes. Although …

Transcranial direct current stimulation ( tDCS ) is a non‐invasive brain stimulation method
that is frequently used to study cortical excitability changes and their impact on cognitive …

Background Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) above the left dorsolateral
prefrontal cortex (lDLPFC) has been widely used to improve symptoms of major depressive …

Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is an increasingly used, non‐invasive
brain stimulation technique in neuroscience research and clinical practice with a broad …

Cognitive neuroscience has witnessed a surge of interest in investigating the neural correlates
of the mind when it drifts away from an ongoing task and the external environment. To …

Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a potent tool for modulating endogenous
oscillations in humans. The current standard method for rTMS defines the stimulation …

Inactive interventions can have significant effects on cognitive performance. Understanding
the generation of these cognitive placebo/nocebo effects is crucial for evaluating the …

Happiness is typically reported as an important reason for participating in challenging activities
like extreme sport. While in the middle of the activity, however, participants do not seem …
