Twenty-seven healthy subjects were randomly assigned to 1 of 2 equal groups
: (1) experimental group (active stimulation) and (2) control group (sham stimulation). A
total of 10 Hz repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation was delivered to the
left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex at 80% of the resting motor threshold. The
reaction time of the correct response, omission error, and commission error of
the auditory and visual continuous performance test scores were measured. The
motor evoked potentials, resting motor threshold, short-interval intracortical
inhibition, and intracortical facilitation was recorded in the right first dorsal
interosseous muscle to determine motor cortex excitability. The reaction time and
commission error of the auditory continuous performance test were reduced
significantly after 10 Hz repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (P
