with gains at T3 in EF of verbal fluency [COWAT (p1⁄40.009)]. However, no significant relationship was observed between the increased CBF with cognition. Conclusions: One intriguing finding is a-tDCS to left IFG plus SMART increased blood flow to right MFC, however the stimulation attenuated cognitive benefits of SMART on EF and memory compared to s-tDCS+SMART group. This paper contributes to growing evidence that cognitive training provides a way to significantly enhance cognitive performance in adults showing memory loss, where the role of a-tDCS in augmenting these effects need further study.
