Abstract
⺠Gender stereotypes can implicitly affect humans' behaviour. ⺠The PFC seems to play a role in controlling gender-stereotypical associations. ⺠TMS can reveal the causal role of a specific brain region in an ongoing process. ⺠TMS applied to the DLPFC and the MPFC modulated gender-stereotypical associations. ⺠The DLPFC and the MPFC are causally involved in inhibiting gender-stereotyping.
