  1. df = 47. Bonferroni-corrected threshold of 0.0083.
  2. PPC right posterior parietal cortex, DLPFC left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex.
  3. aNon-Parametric one-sample Wilcoxon signed rank test.
  4. b\({{{\rm{BF}}}}_{10}^{+0}\): in favor of the alternative hypothesis that capacity changes relative to sham are greater than zero, against the null effect that capacity changes equal to zero.
  5. cBF10: in favor of the alternative hypothesis that capacity changes relative to sham not equal to zero, against the null effect that capacity changes equal to zero.
