Through cognition-behavioral treatment design, this study selected 97 ADHD learners who had poor academic performances. This study divided ADHD students randomly into one experimental group and one control group. After 15 weeks’ intervention, results showed that the experimental group students performed significantly better than the control group in scientific abilities, learning motivation, and metacognition. Results suggest that the McR intervention is an effective approach for improving ADHD students’ science knowledge learning abilities.
