Introduction: Patients with schizophrenia experience various visual disturbances. However, information regarding color perception in these patients is rare. In this study, we used a lateralized color search task to investigate whether difference in color name affects color recognition in patients with schizophrenia.Methods: In a color search task, we controlled the position of the target that emerged from the left visual field (LVF) or right visual field (RVF) as well as the color category. In this task, both the target and the distractors had the same or different color name (e.g., blue or green).Results: Patients with schizophrenia showed faster performance in the color search task with different color names for target-distractors when the target emerged from the LVF than when it emerged from the RVF. However, the same laterality was not observed in healthy controls. This finding indicates that semantic processing for color name differences influenced visual discrimination performance in patients with schizophrenia more profoundly in the LVF than in the RVF.Conclusion: This lateralized performance could imply the failure of the left hemisphere language processing dominance in schizophrenia. A search paradigm combining target position and category may indicate that automatic language processing depends on imbalanced hemispheric function in schizophrenia.

The question whether target selection in visual search can be effectively controlled by simultaneous attentional templates for multiple features is still under dispute. We investigated whether multiple-color attentional guidance is possible when target colors remain constant and can thus be represented in long-term memory but not when they change frequently and have to be held in working memory. Participants searched for one, two, or three possible target colors that were specified by cue displays at the start of each trial. In constant-color blocks, the same colors remained task-relevant throughout. In variable-color blocks, target colors changed between trials. The contralateral delay activity (CDA) to cue displays increased in amplitude as a function of color memory load in variable-color blocks, which indicates that cued target colors were held in working memory. In constant-color blocks, the CDA was much smaller, suggesting that color representations were primarily stored in long-term memory. N2pc components to targets were measured as a marker of attentional target selection. Target N2pcs were attenuated and delayed during multiple-color search, demonstrating less efficient attentional deployment to color-defined target objects relative to single-color search. Importantly, these costs were the same in constant-color and variable-color blocks. These results demonstrate that attentional guidance by multiple-feature as compared with single-feature templates is less efficient both when target features remain constant and can be represented in long-term memory and when they change across trials and therefore have to be maintained in working memory.
