Description

For decades, non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) techniques like Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) and Transcranial directcurrent stimulation (tDCS) have been used in clinical settings as forms of neuromodulatory treatment for depression and other neurodivergent disorders. In recent years, there has been increased research in utilizing the non-invasive techniques to enhance cognition beyond one’s baseline, including language, memory, moral, and veracity enhancements. Due to the lack of systematic reviews in the growing field of veracity enhancement, we aim to provide a concise, summative overview of current research studying the impacts of NIBS on truthfulness, as well as its ethical dilemmas and future directions.
