It was hypothesized that rural and urban secondary school students differ significantly on aggression and frustration. In order to verify the above hypotheses a sample of 120 students were selected from secondary schools. The sample includes equal size of rural (N=60) and urban (N=60) students. To aggression scale developed by Pal and Naqvi (1986) and the Frustration Scale developed by Chauhan & Tiwari (1999) was used. This scale was administered individually to the subjects. The data were subjected to ‘t’ analyses and the major findings of the study revealed that: rural students (mean=52.10) have more aggression then urban students (mean=47.89) of secondary school. There is 0.05 level significant differences between rural and urban students of secondary school on aggression. On frustration variable rural students (mean=50.05) have more frustration then urban students (mean=49.94) of secondary school, but they is no significant difference between both the group.
