Using a transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) device that non-invasively delivers electrical stimulation to the brain through the use of pulsed magnetic fields, different frequencies of pulsed magnetic stimulation are applied to the brain cortex. The objective is to observe the impact of magnetic stimulation in different frequencies on alpha-band brainwaves, which represents motor rhythms and brain oscillator rhythms. This aims to clarify whether magnetic stimulation can be used to control motor ability and motor learning.

Humans naturally possess a inherent pace and tempo in their everyday actions, such as walking and speaking, and they spontaneously adjust this tempo in response to the constantly changing environment around them. This variability is thought to be influenced by the active control exerted by the brain's rhythm generation mechanism (neural oscillators) in response to various stimuli..
Therefore, in this study, we deliver different frequencies of repetitive transcranial pulse magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on to the brain. The stimulation will be applied to cortical regions suggested to be associated with the control of brain oscillators, and observe the impact on alpha-band brainwaves, which represent motor rhythms and brain oscillator rhythms. The objective is to elucidate whether specific rhythm of magnetic stimulation may modify motor abilities and motor learning.

Prior to the examination, structural brain data will be obtained by MRI. The intervention involves four rTMS conditions, including sham stimulation, applied to the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex using a neuronavigation system while maintaining a seated position. The four conditions were as follows: 1) 1Hz, 2) tapping-specific rhythm, 3) 10Hz, and 4) Sham stimulation, each lasting for 20 minutes (continuous for 1Hz, and 20 seconds every 1 second for 2-4). The study will be conducted as a within-subject trial, with one condition per day and a random allocation of conditions within each week.
