Remediation of Auditory Recognition in Schizophrenia With Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS)
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Active Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), Sham Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), and 2 other interventions for Schizophrenia and Schizoaffective Disorder. Completed, enrolled 20 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), when combined with different forms of computer based training, improves the ability to discriminate small differences between sounds in people diagnosed with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder.
