Fig. 1From: Transdiagnostic comparison of visual working memory capacity in bipolar disorder and schizophreniaThe change detection task used to assess working memory capacity. Each trial began with the alert phase, during which the fixation cross turned to red for 500Â ms. This was followed by a preparation phase of 500Â ms. During the encoding phase a sample array of four colored circles was presented for 200Â ms. During the delay phase, the black fixation cross remained on the screen for 1800 ms. The whole-display recognition test array followed, in which participants had a maximum duration of 3000Â ms to decide if the test array was identical to the sample array presented in the encoding phase, or if one of the circles had changed colorBack to article page
