Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The stimulation of specific areas of the brain with a magnetic coil is known as transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), which is primarily used to study cognitive functions such as attention, perception, and memory. Therefore, the changes caused by TMS are likely to be cognitive in nature. A, B, and D are not applicable as they are unrelated to TMS.
