A Experimental design of the Go-Nogo Task during EEG-TMS sessions. B Reaction time (RT) modulation by the trial position in a sequence (n = 44 sessions, Wilcoxon test, two-sided, p = 0.0001). C The modulation of the effect of trial position by the TMS stimulation (n = 22 participants, Wilcoxon test, two-sided, TMS-SFG p = 0.04, TMS-SFG vs TMS-IFG p = 0.04, uncorrected). B, C Boxplots display the extreme values, interquartile range, and median, and each point representing the mean for an individual subject. D Posterior distribution of model parameters (n = 24 participants, Bayesian hypothesis test using pMCMC, two-sided, Ex pMCMC < 0.001, Ex:TMS:Th:SFG interaction pMCMC = 0.0006). Black dots represent the mean of the distribution, and black lines represent the 95% high-density intervals. The colored areas represent the complete posterior distribution. The grey rectangle indicates interaction regressors with the Ex regressor. * indicates p < 0.05, **p < 0.01,***p < 0.001. RT reaction time, SFG superior frontal gyrus, Th theta rhythm, TMS transcranial magnetic stimulation. see Supplementary Table 5. Source data are provided as a SourceData file.
