Preconditioning of Low-Frequency Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation with Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation: Evidence for Homeostatic Plasticity in the Human Motor Cortex (2004, neutral): “During 1 Hz rTMS, each magnetic stimulus generates a pulsed magnetic field to induce an electrical current in the underlying brain (Rothwell, 1997; Hallett, 2000 ).”

Optimizing Functional Accuracy of TMS in Cognitive Studies: A Comparison of Methods (2009, positive): “…magnetic stimulation (TMS) allows controlled manipulation of brain activity, with a quantifiable impact on behavior or cognition (Sack, 2006; Hallett, 2000; Pascual-Leone, Walsh, & Rothwell, 2000; Pascual-Leone, Bartres-Faz, & Keenan, 1999), and is now a well-established tool for inducing…”
