This study employed the multiple-probe technique across subjects, variation of the multiple-baseline designs. The independent variable of this research was aerobic exercise, whereas the dependent variables were the immediate and maintenance effects of aerobic exercise to enhance short-term memory for students with intellectual disabilities. The experiment was divided into three phases, respectively the baseline period, the treatment period, and the maintenance period. The short-term memory test was developed by the researcher. The collected data was analyzed with visual inspection and C statistics. There are two major findings. First, the aerobic exercise to enhance short-term memory for students with intellectual disabilities has immediate effects. Secondly, the maintenance effects of aerobic exercise to enhance short-term memory for students with intellectual disabilities depends on the subject’s own memory ability. According to the findings mentioned above, suggestions were proposed for the teaching of the teachers, and relevant studies in the future.
