Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Age 18 – 30 years, female or male gender, right handed based on the Oldfield test (14).

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Fracture in the upper extremity over the past year, neurological disorders, pregnancy, medicine known to affect nerve conduction, Epilepsy, Pacemaker, metal in the brain/skull.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main outcome measure is the error in matching a template during VMP in with the left and right hand

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Corticospinal excitability indexed by the size of the motor evoked potentials (MEPs) produced by transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), short-interval intracortical inhibition (SICI), intracortical facilitation (ICF), ipsilateral silent period (iSP) and contralateral facilitation (CLF).
