TL;DR: The findings show that tDCS-combined cognitive training is an effective tool for improving the ability to inhibit responses, and could constitute a step toward the use of tDCS and cognitive training as a therapeutic tool for cognitive control impairments in conditions such as attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) or schizophrenia.

TL;DR: The hypothesis that functions in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) that support declarative memory formation indirectly reduce the formation of procedural representations are tested and support the hypothesis of interference between Declarative and procedural consolidation processes.

TL;DR: The inferior parietal lobule (IPL) (corresponding to the supramarginal gyrus) exhibited reduction in neural activity due to adaptation when a visual stimulus of the same duration was repeatedly presented, indicating the presence of general time-representation mechanisms in the IPL.

TL;DR: The findings support hierarchical theories of norm-based face coding and suggest that face adaptation effects have a representational basis, thereby providing a link between high-level adaptation and more general aspects of neuro-cognitive plasticity, that is, learning and memory.

TL;DR: No main effects of experimental setting compatibility resulting from varying where the tests where conducted (environmental condition) nor any interaction with effects of stimulus compatibility result from varying stimulus similarity between adaptation and test phase using the same picture, different pictures of the same person, or different persons are found.
