Study design. a) The study spanned two experimental days. On the first day, participants practiced the ASRT task through 25 learning blocks and performed the learning phase of the PALT; then, a 24-h offline period ensued. On the second day, participants received 1 Hz rTMS for 10 min. Immediately after rTMS administration, participants performed 5 blocks of the ASRT task and the recall phase of the PALT. The order of the two tasks was counterbalanced between participants on both days. b) Stimulation sites for the four groups: The coil was tilted by 90° in the Sham group, F3 was stimulated for 10 min in the left DLPFC group, F4 was stimulated for 10 min in the Right DLPFC group, and F3 and F4 were sequentially stimulated for 5 min each in the Bilateral group.
