Transcranial direct current stimulation to lateral prefrontal cortex could increase meta-awareness of mind wandering
Open accessAbstract
In a recent article, Axelrod et al. (1) present the results of an intriguing transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) study, showing that noninvasive electrical stimulation of the dorsolateral and rostrolateral prefrontal cortex (PFC) increases the propensity to mind-wander. Further, they show that sham stimulation at these same PFC sites does not increase mind wandering, nor does veridical stimulation of the occipital cortex. Given the widespread tendency in cognitive neuroscience to focus attention largely or solely on the role of the default mode network in mind wandering, this study represents an important step toward a better appreciation of the roles of many other brain areas, …

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
