  1. df- degrees of freedom, Ī· 2 part - partial eta squared (effect size). All ANOVAs were conducted using the following within-subject factors:
  2. Ā· TREATMENT: before vs. after rTMS.
  3. Ā· BLOCK: 1ā€‰=ā€‰first 10 days vs. 2ā€‰=ā€‰last 10 days of experiment.
  4. Ā· BREAK: before vs. after session break between the mCST administrations (equivalent to the time taken to administer rTMS in patients) in healthy volunteers.
  5. Ā· TIME: before rTMS or break on the first 10 days vs. after rTMS or break on the last 10 days of experiment.
