Different Levels

Professional work of police officers focuses on a variety of tasks, including patrolling the city and expediting on-call challenges, reaction to traffic violations, prevention of offenses, their detection and response to them, etc. Permanent interaction with the population in the course of performing professional duties requires the police to develop a certain level of communication skills. Interaction with representatives of different layers of society can often be accompanied by conflicts and manipulations in communication. Police officers point to insufficient formation of their communicative competencies, as well as to their professional vulnerability in performing tasks in certain situations of interpersonal interaction. The objective of the paper is to empirically study the features of social intelligence for future police officers with different levels of communicative tolerance. The authors used the questionnaire "General communicative tolerance" (V. Boiko) and the "Social intelligence" test (G. Gilford in the adaptation of O. Mikhailova) as a psycho-diagnostic tool. The sample consisted of 132 trainees from the institute of postgraduate education of Kharkiv National University of Internal Affairs. It is theoretically justified that communication in the professional activity of a police officer plays an important role, communicative tolerance is a necessary internal regulator of communication and behaviour within the police activity, and social intelligence in the professional activity of a police officer is a kind of psychological resource for professional development and self-development in the context of his communicative competence. It is noted that the professional activity of a police officer should be regulated not only exclusively by professional standards, standards of conduct contained in laws, orders and instructions, but also by ethical norms, customs and traditions, public opinion and social expectations in society, in turn, it requires a special professionally oriented social intelligence of the future police officers. The authors have empirically established differences in the manifestations of social intelligence among trainees with different levels of communicative tolerance, which is to determine the deficiency of ability to predict the consequences of the behaviour of other people, to understand the logic of development of interaction situations and the ability to highlight key features in a variety of human non-verbal responses in subjects with low levels. The obtained results actualize the need to develop and implement practical recommendations on the formation of communicative competence among future police officers at the stage of their professional training.

The Future

As a result of the rapid development of intercultural communication and global transformations taking place in the world in the 90s of the XX century, it became necessary to create a new personality with a new set of qualities and competencies that are urgently needed for the rational functioning in a multicultural world. For the successful performance of professional duties is not enough to be a specialist who knows job, today. Modern Ukrainian society needs educated professionals who can think critically and make decisions independently in a situation that requires a choice, that is, to be dynamic, mobile, creative. That is, the main feature of professional activity is its development, which requires constant updating and improvement of skills. Each specialist should acquire new knowledge and improve their skills, and, consequently, improve their professional qualities. According to research, professionals who are not engaged in improving professional competence, there comes a time in life when they have internal dissatisfaction with their activities and they need to improve professional skills, or even change their professional orientation. Given the large variety of information technologies at all educational levels, it is not difficult to improve your professional level, and mobile learning is a way to solve a number of educational problems today. In this regard, the relevance of communicative education of future police officers is increasing. After all, the need to train a competent police officer capable of effective professional activity in a multi-ethnic environment is a priority in the training of future police officers in the parameters of European standards. The socio-cultural aspect in the professional training of future police officers is not only the formation of communicative competence, but also the space of interpersonal relations, in which a holistic culture of the individual is formed. The article presents an analysis of the diagnostic results of the formation of communicative competence of the future police officer. The results demonstrate the levels of formation of communicative competence of future police officers in cognitive, emotional and behavioural components.

The author has studied the peculiarities of academic motivation of final-year cadets (n=323) of higher education institutions with specific educational conditions. It has been determined that the dominant motivation for their professional training is internal motivation. They make independent decisions about their professional activities and seek to continue their service within the National Police. Adequate and situational types of professional motivation are typical for cadets. Respondents are aiming for theoretical knowledge. The motives for the professional activities of final-year cadets do not affect their motivation to acquire theoretical knowledge, but they affect the acquisition of professional skills and abilities. The “romantic halo” of the profession remains in the perception of the profession by final-year cadets, but the material component also becomes important. The status of the profession in society and its material remuneration, as well as the curiosity of the chosen profession have significant influence on the motivation of future professional activities of fourth-year cadets. The motivating factor for internally motivated cadets is a sense of effectiveness, as well as status and state’s high salary for labor of law enforcement professionals. Externally positively motivated cadets in case of the decrease in the status of the profession, unrealized career ambitions or the reduction of the material rewards of law enforcement officers may begin to perform their duties formally or may leave the service. Externally negatively motivated cadets are not interested in performing professional duties. On the basis of the obtained data, the author has concluded on the importance of mentoring in the process of professional development of young specialists and the continuation of professional training in the system of postgraduate education and service training of police officers. The author has emphasized the importance of further motivation of final-year cadets within professional activity, in particular the introduction of a “motivational” package for police officers by the state.

The professional activity of the police patrol officers makes high demands on their level of possession of fighting. Training in combat techniques within the framework of the discipline «Physical training» of the main programs of professional training takes place without taking into account the situations of their application. Demonstration of techniques is also strongly abstracted from the situations of practical activities of police officers. The problem of the research is to resolve the contradiction between the need to develop skills of using combat techniques of fighting in situations of operational activity among the officers of the patrol and guard service of the police and the lack of a scientific methodology for situational training of police officers in the use of physical force in the study of professional training programs for police officers. The study was conducted to substantiate the effectiveness and features of using the situational method for training police patrol officers in the use of combat methods of fighting in situations of official activity. As a result of the study, three levels of complexity were developed for the use of combat techniques in situations of operational and service activities of police patrol officers for use in the main training programs for the position of a «Police Officer». According to the results of the final testing, the effectiveness of the use of techniques in typical situations of official activity of the police patrol officers increased by 27.8%, which confirmed the research hypothesis. The special feature of using the situational method is the structuring of situations according to the levels of difficulty of performing of combat techniques. The educational and training process of physical training of the police patrol officers begins in the professional cycle and continues in the variable educational discipline «Actual issues of the activities of the police patrol and guard service units» of the professional-specialized cycle of professional training programs for «Police Officer».

The purpose of writing this scientific article is to determine the features of mentoring in the National Police of Ukraine on the basis of distinguishing this concept from related concepts. In order to achieve this goal, the author defines a range of concepts related to mentoring in the National Police, which will analyze in the work: training, coaching, consulting, mentoring, supervision. The paper emphasizes the need to adapt mentoring in the National Police of Ukraine to the modern realities of Ukrainian society and to modernize it to European standards. An example of an attempt to implement this thesis is the introduction of the institute of mentors in the patrol police of Ukraine in 2019. Mentoring in the patrol police is the first step towards overcoming urgent problems with the young potential of the police. In the future, it is proposed to determine the legal basis for the implementation of this and similar institutions in the police. According to the author, the method of supervision can be introduced into the internal activities of the National Police of Ukraine after careful preparation and definition of the main methodological goals, objectives and methods of application. However, the institution of supervision is not identical to mentoring, as it has a number of differences: their subjects and objects, as well as the relationship between them. Emphasis is placed on the mandatory use of training in the process of professional training of police officers: initial training; training in higher educational institutions with specific learning conditions; postgraduate education; job training. But the key difference between training and mentoring is the acquisition of knowledge in artificially created conditions or in real life situations during the performance of police duties. The author considers coaching a necessary element for mentoring in the National Police of Ukraine. The mentor should not indicate the algorithm of actions for the police officer, not solve work tasks by his own example, but give the police officer the opportunity to make decisions independently, perform actions under the strict supervision of the mentor with prior and subsequent analysis of the work situation. The paper focuses on the inappropriateness of the use of consulting in the activities of the National Police of Ukraine, as the police officer has no opportunity not to follow the recommendations, instructions, orders, etc.

This paper presents the results of an empirical study of the peculiarities of manifestations of emotional intelligence among police officers with different levels of communicative tolerance at the stage of primary vocational training. In this context, the actual model of emotional intelligence and its practical application need to be verified taking into account the specifics of police activity. Emotional intelligence is considered primarily as an integral feature of the personality of a policeman in the context of his professional communication in situations that are problematic. The emotional intelligence of the individual is represented in the article as a cognitive ability to perceive and analyze both their own and others’ emotional states and emotional manifestations; as well as the ability to correctly regulate and use them. Communicative tolerance, in turn, is one of the most important features of the police officer, which shows his attitude to people, the degree of tolerance to unpleasant or unacceptable, in his opinion, mental states, qualities and deeds. As a psychodiagnostic tool, the questionnaire “General communicative tolerance” (V. V. Boyko) and the “Emotional Intelligence” test (D. V. Lusin) were used. The sample consisted of 132 students of initial training of police officers. The results of the study indicate differences in the manifestations of emotional intelligence in students with different levels of communicative tolerance. It is empirically proven that emotional intelligence in situations of problematic communication acts as an integral personality of the police officer, which allows him to successfully recognize and interpret the emotions of both his own and the communication partner. The study of the level of emotional intelligence of the police at the stage of professional training will allow the psychological support service to better address the tasks of professional selection and psychological support for future policemen.

Leary and the abbreviated version of the questionnaire of the Big Five in the adaptation of O. John, L. Naumann, S. Soto. In general, the selected questionnaires allowed to determine the professional features of communication of district police officers in the vectors of extroversion and introversion, friendliness and aggression, dominance and dependence. The profile of a district police officer has been found to combine wall and hyposthenic characteristics, allowing them to combine stern, masculine traits and patterns of behavior in interpersonal relationships with milder, emotionally benevolent manifestations. Personal characteristics such as honesty, extroversion, moderate flexibility, openness to new experiences, low levels of neuroticism indicate that district police officers tend to have a mixed type of response in the process of interpersonal interaction. It has been proven that the use of questionnaires provides an objective and comprehensive description of the style of interpersonal behavior of police officers, which will improve the quality of professional selection of police officers, increase the efficiency of teamwork and increase public confidence in the police.
