According to Sohlberg and Mateer’s Hierarchical Attentional Model, attention is subdivided into several categories as below: 

• Arousal: the activation level and level of alertness, whether we are energized or fatigue;
• Focalized Attention: the ability to direct focus onto a stimulus or activity;
• Sustained Attention: the ability to attend to a stimulus or activity for a long period of time;
• Selective Attention: the ability to direct focus onto a specific stimulus or activity in the presence of other distracting stimuli;
• Alternating Attention: the ability to change focus between two or more stimuli;
• Divided Attention: the ability to pay focus to different stimuli at the same time.
