摘要:Police work is done among citizens, quite often in intricate conditions induced by factors of security which may call for an intervention with an extent of communication intensity ranging from low (verbal) to high and exceptionally high and risky (use of lower and severe levels of physical force) to deadly force. The present study aims to place the students of Academy of Criminalistic and Police Studies (ACPS) and active police officers (PO) on a scale within the population in their working environment, in view of the characteristics of basic contractility (maximal muscle force) of the primary manipulatory body organ (the hand) in its essential motor task (flexing all the fingers to produce a grip). The research included 368 respondents: 165 from 10 populations differing in their levels of physical activity and preparedness, while the criterion group of 203 respondents consisted of the ACPS students and PO. The results indicated the existence of four male populations who may be claimed to have significantly higher levels of maximal muscle hand grip force, with respect to the criterion group - PO and the ACPS students (ranging from 26.45 to 83.03 %); five populations had similar levels (from 5.93 to -12.06 %); while one population showed lower force levels (from -25.55 to -26.53 %). The contemporary approach to police higher education design must rest on the utilization of adequate scientific and methodological principles, which will yield the concept defined by the description of the conditions within the system of the environment in which the future police personnel will work.
