- •
The relationship between updating and performance on mathematical word problems has never been studied for children with ADHD.
- •
The request of updating information in a mathematical word problem impaired the problem solving ability of children with ADHD.
- •
Our results support the view that updating is problematic in ADHD children and that updating influences their problem solving ability.
- •
Due to the importance of problem solving in school learning and in everyday life difficulties of ADHD children due to updating processes should be considered more deeply.
