Abstract: Using the simplified Chinese version of the automated operation span task developed by thecurrent study and the Raven progressive matrices, we tested 102 college students. Eighty-six participants were re-tested after approximately 8 days. Results: The Cronbach’s α was 0. 670, and the testretest reliability was 0. 666. Using the Raven progressive matrices as the criterion,we found that Pearson correlation analysis showed significantly positively correlated whenever in the initial test ( r = 0. 33,P < 0. 01) or the re-tested ( r = 0. 39,P < 0. 001) . Conclusion: The simplified Chinese version of theautomated version of the operation span task had good reliability and validity and was easy to operatefor users.

Abstract: Depression, known as a neuropsychiatric disorder, is generally manifested as an emotional disorder. However, recent studies have shown that the visual perception processing of depressed individuals has been altered. From the perspective of visual object characteristics (e.g., contrast senstivity) and visual task paradigms (e.g., binocular rivalry), we reviewed previous studies regarding the visual processings of depressed individuals. These studies have showed that the visual perception processing of depressed individuals is impaired at different levels of the visual pathway. In the future, researchers can attempt to use tasks of visual perception processing as an objective diagnostic method on the basis of different subtypes of depression when distinguishing depression individuals from the healthy individuals.
