Although the causes of interpersonal aggression are clearly multifactorial, recent research on aggression has emphasized certain cognitive capacities as putative antecedents. Converging evidence has suggested that the so-called executive functioning may play an important role in mediating aggressive behavior, predominant explanation for the relationship between executive functioning and aggression has been related to the concept of impulsivity. More specifically, it has been hypothesized that aggressive, low executive functioning individuals are less able to inhibit aggression behaviors.Gongdu students are more like to demonstrate aggression behaviors in response to impulsivity, it puzzled gongdu education over the years. It is precisely because the gongdu students whether executive functioning is poor, and have frequent aggression? The current study relied on executive functioning for a new framework, we chose three of the executive functions, inhibition, shifting/switch, and updating to conduct research. Each of components chose the three base experiments, With normal students the same age as the control group. The results are significantly greater difference between gongdu and normal students, the gongdu group exhibited significantly performance on the executive functioning compared with the control group. We used latent variables analysis on the diversity of three execution functions, and compared with multiple group, The results noted diversity of these three execution functions at the level of latent variables cross-group invariance, and findings have been consistent with previous studies, the results support research indicating that executive functioning is related to aggressive behavior.The study of aggression behavior was the major from the overt/explicit and covert/implicit aggression, The results are significantly difference between gongdu and normal students, the gongdu students exhibited more higher performance on overt and covert aggression compared with the normal group. We used latent variables analysis technologies on between executive functioning and aggressive behavior, and found a good multiple fit indexes for the model. Executive functioning can forecast aggressive behavior, We used multiple group compared with relationship between gongdu and normal students, the gongdu students structural equation model of the attacks have better explained power compared with normal students. The results confirmed the hypothesis of the poor executive functioning and aggression behavior, provided experimental evidence supporting that executive functioning of gongdu students were lower than normal students. This suggests possible that gongdu students with cognitive cause lead to more impulsive aggression. We focused on characteristics of execution functioning, provide valuable insights for developing interventions for gongdu students at aggression behavior. We believe that through cognitive training can reduce gongdu students aggression behavior to a certain extent.
