  1. HC health control group, MUD methamphetamine use disorder group, Pre methamphetamine use disorder group before the rTMS treatment, Post methamphetamine use disorder group after the rTMS treatment, A learning rate, alpha outcome sensitivity, cons response consistency, lambda loss aversion, epP gain impact, epN loss impact, K decay rate, ω reinforcement learning weight.
  2. aLevene’s test is significant (p < 0.05); suggesting a violation of the assumption of equal variances.
