Digital processing research is a hot topic of cognitive psychology. A characteristic of digital and space is an important part of the digital processing study. Scholars of digital spatial representation focuses on attention and spatial tasks, but the research methods are still relatively simple. In the space mission the emergence of figures as unrelated stimulate are also independent of the probe stimulus. In this paper, we use paradigm of Global-Local processing of perception task to study digital effects, the number of good integration with other stimuli to explore spatial characteristics in the different tasks and different attention state.This study includes two experiments. Experiment 1 included two experiments of figure as global feature(letters as local) and numbers as local feature(letters as global), require subjects to determine the figures show to 5 large or small, in order to explore the attention state, the figure as global and as local (15 numbers form as a letter) of different processing methods. Experiment 2 and Experiment 1 of the same experimental materials, require subjects to judge the letters presented as global feature (number as local) and as local feature(number as global) is a vowel or a consonant. Avoid the direct process to numbers, to investigate a number of unrelated factors if impact space missions.In this study, the following conclusions:1) Experiment 1, in the two kinds of global and local processing tasks, the number of no difference in reaction time.2) Experiment 1, as the number of local feature in processing task SNARC effect occurred, the number of tasks as global feature does not appear the SNARC effect.3) Experiment 2, in two kinds of global and local processing tasks, the letters has significant differences in reaction time.4) Experiment 2, in the number for global feature and local feature processing task, both the SNARC effect did not occur.
