Attention Skills: Developmental

The Attention Skills: Developmental module begins with the very simple exercises you need for adults and children with head injuries or developmental disabilities. Following the Sohlberg & Mateer model, these eight programs are carefully crafted to target various types of attention – focused, sustained, selective, and alternating. The tasks become increasingly challenging as you progress. You can easily customize the exercises to build impulse control, processing speed, and reasoning skills.

Here are some quick samples of two of the exercises. To explore the programs thoroughly, order a fully-functional trial CD from the BrainTrain Mall.

Target Practice provides drill and practice on quick visual scanning and selective attention. On the level illustrated here, your job is to click the mouse only when you see a playing card with diamonds.

Click the mouse when the newest image on screen matches the color of the border. The border color will change, requiring divided attention and visual scanning. On the higher levels of this program, you must respond very quickly to the constantly changing stimuli.
