This study provides further insight into the underlying mechanisms linking physical exercise and aggressive behavior in rural left-behind children. Physical exercise not only has a direct negative effect on aggressive behavior but also indirectly predicts aggressive behavior through its impact on psychological capital and self-control. This mediating effect model provided a valuable insight for improving their physical exercise and preventing aggressive behavior
