Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
We will measure a number of dependent variables including reaction time (RT), movement time (MT) and accurracy of the movement (was the correct grip used). These results will be compared between the conditions in which participants receive rIFG, lIFG or OCC stimulation. Specifically, we will conduct a 2x2x3 ANOVA using Task (Imitate, Complement), Phase (preparation, execution) and Location (rIFG, lIFG, OCC) as independent variables.	—
