Transcutaneous Vagus Nerve Stimulation Effects on Flavor‐Evoked Electroencephalogram and Eye‐Blink Rate
In conclusion, overall we did not observe a clear optimal ear location for tVNS-induced modulation of neurophysiological, perceptual, and behavioral variables. Future studies may confirm whether spontaneous eye-blink rate can be a sensitive proxy for food reward-related phasic dopamine shifts.
