	Surgency		Negative affectivity		Effortful control
	OR (95% CI)	P	OR (95% CI)	P	OR (95% CI)	P
Model 1
Meeting the PA recommendation	1.60 (1.26 to 2.03	< 0.001	1.02 (0.81 to 1.30)	0.85	0.62 (0.46 to 0.84)	0.002
Model 2
Meeting the PA recommendation	1.56 (1.21 to 2.01)	< 0.001	0.98 (0.76 to 1.27)	0.89	0.61 (0.43 to 0.85)	0.004
Model 3

The odds ratio (OR) with its 95% confidence interval (CI) and P value are given for each association. PA physical activity. The PA recommendation was defined as having PA at least 180 min/day, of which at least 60 min/day was moderate-to-vigorous PA. Not meeting the PA recommendation was set as a reference group
Model 1 was adjusted for awake wearing time, N = 697
Model 2 was adjusted for child’s age and sex, research season, socioeconomic status, and awake wearing time, N = 694
Model 3 was adjusted for child’s age and sex, research season, socioeconomic status, and awake wearing time and additionally for other temperament dimensions, N = 694
