| Abstract: | Impulsivity is a multi-dimensional construct that is regarded as a symptom of many psychiatric disorders.

Therefore, the importance of developing therapeutic interventions to target impulsivity is paramount. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of the literature from AMED, Embase, Medline, and PsycINFO databases on the use of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in healthy adults to modulate different subdomains (motor, temporal and reflection) of impulsivity. The results indicated that rTMS has distinct effects on different impulsivity subdomains. It has a significant, albeit small, effect on modulating motor impulsivity (g?=?0.30, 95% CI, 0.17 to 0.43, p?g?=?0.59, 95% CI, 0.32 to 0.86, p?
