Interventions/Control_1

Anodal and cathodal electrodes are placed at the left frontal areas and right frontal areas, respectively. 13-min tDCS with a current intensity of 2 mA is applied twice with a 20-min. After more than a month, sham stimulation is applied. With the same electrodes placed as in the true stimulation condition, sham stimulation is switched off 30 seconds after stimulation start. After each stimulation, raclopride PET and MRS is performed.

Interventions/Control_2

First, sham stimulation is applied. After more than a month, true stimulation is applied. After each stimulation, raclopride PET and MRS is performed.
