Non-invasive brain stimulation as a set of research tools in neurois: Opportunities and methodological considerations

Abstract

NeuroIS is a growing field that builds on neuroscience to improve the understanding of human interaction with information technologies and information systems. One can investigate causal relationships between brain activity patterns, cognitive processes, and behavior in a non-invasive way via using non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) tools, but researchers in the neuroIS community have yet to do so. We introduce NIBS, show how it can address caveats found in current research, describe the implementation of a NIBS protocol, and assess what these tools can bring to the neuroIS field.
