No effects of the theta-frequency transcranial electrical stimulation for recall, attention control, and relation integration in working memory

DiscussionThe results suggest that canonical measures of WM capacity are strongly stable in time and hardly affected by theta-frequency tACS. Either the tACS effects observed in the n-back and change detection tasks do not generalize onto other WM tasks, or the tACS method has limited effectiveness with regard to WM, and might require further methodological advancements.
