Local-Biased Visuoperception in Sub-Clinical Obsessive-Compulsive Subjects

Abstract

This study used a local-global paradigm to examine whether female college students with sub-clinical obsessive-compulsive symptoms would overly focus on local aspects of stimuli and be more affected by incongruent stimuli than would normal controls. Participants were 15 sub-clinical obsessive-compulsive subjects as psychometrically defined by the Padua Inventory(PI) and the Maudsley Obsessive-Compulsive Inventory(MOCI) and 15 controls. We employed 3 types of stimuli(congruent, incongruent, and neutral), all large global numbers made up of small, local numbers. For global and local tasks, participants were instructed to respond to the global or local levels of stimuli, respectively. Both the sub-clinical obsessive-compulsive group(OC) and the control group showed faster response time on the global task as compared to the local task. However, in the global task, the sub-clinical OC group committed significantly more errors than did the control group. No such difference was seen in the local task. In local versus global tasks, the control group showed more errors in response to incongruent stimuli, but the sub-clinical OC group did not show any such difference. Additionally, the sub-clinical OC group showed significant positive correlations between MOCI scores and response times/error rates in the global task but not in the local task. These results indicate that sub-clinical OC subjects have difficulties in processing global features and the local-biased tendency reported in patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder is present even before OC symptoms are developed.
