Many people want to serve in the police, as this is a very prestigious job, which at the same time pays quite a lot. However, getting hired is not as easy as it might seem. You need to pass a large number of a variety of tests and checks, including CPD. What it is? What is the definition of CPD? It is about this and will be discussed in this article. You will learn what it is, how this abbreviation stands for, and also what the essence of this particular check is. So, if you are interested in deciphering the CPD, then this article is for you.
Decryption
On the CPD itself, it is quite simple. The fact is that quite an impressive number of people strive to get into it. But at the same time, not all of them want to get into the service in order to get the honor of protecting their compatriots from criminals. Many aspire to the authorities precisely because of the aforementioned salary, and some simply do not have a sufficiently stable mental state to withstand all the hardships
The transcript will not really delight you and will not impress you - it was originally a Center that was opened in 1996 to provide selection and psychological support for people who come to serve in the organs. The fact is that the loads of such work are often very high, and not every person who considers himself strong and balanced can withstand a long time in the organs. Therefore, the JPC is being carried out - what used to mean a psychological center, today is a short name for the full range of psychological examinations that any candidate for a position in law enforcement agencies must undergo.
Procedures
Now you know what CPD is. Deciphering this concept turned out to be quite simple. But what does this survey include? As mentioned above, in order to get into the organs, you need to undergo a whole range of examinations, among which is the study of the state of the cardiovascular and central nervous systems of the body. Accordingly, the state of your health is checked, that is, whether you are suitable from this point of view for service in law enforcement agencies.
However, one of the most important examinations is psychological. It is it that will determine how morally you are ready to serve in the Ministry of the Interior. Strictly speaking, the situation is as follows: when you want to enter the service in the authorities, your file comes to the JRC, which will indicate the position for which you are applying, as well as other details about you. It is according to these documents that a personalized set of procedures is compiled for you, among which one of the main ones is a polygraph test - a lie detector. IN Lately many people under CPD mean this particular test, since it is one of the most extensive, and also represents the basis of the whole complex. Therefore, in the case of CPD, decoding may also imply not only an explanation of the abbreviation, but also an analysis of the results that the polygraph shows.
Psychological check
However, deciphering the CPD test on a polygraph is not the only thing that the psychologists of the center do. Memory, attention, general intellectual level, as well as character traits and personal qualities are examined. All this is carefully analyzed to determine whether the person is suitable for service in the position for which he is applying.
In addition, an important part of testing is the determination of the motives for entering the service, as well as the general background of a person's life. First of all, as already mentioned, it is checked that his motives are not selfish. As you can easily understand, you can write absolutely anything in the questionnaire, which is why the Ministry of Internal Affairs uses a polygraph, with which you can easily determine whether a person is telling the truth or hiding something.
Reasons for joining the service
It has already been said more than once that people may want to get a job in the Ministry of Internal Affairs in order to receive any benefit from this. However, what selfish reasons can guide a person? This is what the CPD finds out. The decoding of the abbreviation clearly indicates that this center concentrates on psychological aspects candidates for the service, so in this area there are practically no mistakes made. Specialists always manage to find out who wants to enter the service in order to receive a large salary, to make important acquaintances, to use their official position for personal purposes, and so on.
Unfortunately, too many candidates turn out to be unclean. Moreover, experts also bring to light those who have a hidden criminal record, problems with alcohol and drugs, and have demonstrated any other types of antisocial behavior in the past. It is for weeding out such personalities that the Ministry of Internal Affairs CPD exists. Deciphering the abbreviation is only a small part of what you should know about this psychological center. As you can already understand, an important part of this article will be devoted to the study with a polygraph.
First stages
It may seem that all these procedures are already an impressive amount of work and this could be completed. However, this is only the first stage, as noted above, the polygraph is an important assistant to psychologists. It is he who helps to determine whether the candidate really corresponds to the position for which he is applying. To understand this, you need the conclusion of the CPD. Deciphering polygraph readings is also an important amount of work, so diverse specialists should be involved. Only then does the determination of candidate compliance become as accurate as possible.
Working with a polygraph
So, now you know that the first stages of compliance testing for entering the service in law enforcement agencies are the passage of a medical examination and psychological tests, that is, VVK and TsPD. Deciphering the first abbreviation is also not difficult - this is a military medical commission, and you already know the decoding of the second.
It's time to talk about the third, last and most important stage - a polygraph test. A large block of questions that is offered to the candidate during the test is created individually based on the results of the previous stages. Two hours are given to pass the test, during which the candidate must answer the questions given to him, and this should be done as honestly as possible, because it is simply impossible to deceive a polygraph. As practice shows, about eighty percent of candidates who apply for a position in law enforcement agencies do not pass a polygraph test for one hundred percent, that is, it turns out that they were hiding something negative about themselves. And when the psychologist receives all the answers to his questions, the stage of data analysis begins, that is, the results of the CPD obtained using a polygraph are deciphered.
Deciphering the results
Now you have a complete understanding of what is JPC to the police. Deciphering the results of the polygraph is the last stage, which determines whether you can take the position in law enforcement that interests you. This is done, of course, by experienced specialists who have been working with a polygraph for several years. Of course, technology has gone quite far lately, and there are even special programs that independently analyze the data received. However, in such a responsible study, it is very important that there are no errors, so the information is processed by specialists. They decipher the polygraph readings, after which they make an appropriate conclusion, in which they immediately consider all the results of the previous stages of the test. And then the candidate is notified about whether he passes to the chosen position or not.
Popular results
If we talk about a polygraph test, then it is interesting to find out what details of their lives are most often hidden by candidates when they enter the service in law enforcement agencies. In 1.7% of cases, the polygraph reveals that the candidate has stable ties with certain criminal elements. Another three per cent of cases are among people who have committed criminal acts that ultimately go unpunished. In 3.6% of cases, the candidate wants to enter the service in order to acquire official connections, abuse power, receive extraneous income (such as bribes), and so on. It is also common for people (5 percent) who have had suicide attempts in the past. Naturally, they are not suitable for service in such a tense environment. In fifteen percent of cases, the candidate had a history of disciplinary action and punishment, which he did not report when applying for a position in the internal bodies. And one of the most popular hidden factors is the use of psychotropic substances - 31.2 percent of people lie about it, with the majority of them having a drug problem and only one fifth of these people with alcohol.
Most Popular Hidden Fact
Unfortunately, there won't be any big reveal here, as the 40 percent of people hiding something just can't be put into any big category. Therefore, their secrets are presented in the category of "other negative data." Among them, you can find negative character traits that can interfere with the performance of duties in an optimal way, the presence of close relatives who are prone to mental illness, alcoholism and drug addiction, the candidate's involvement in any communities, sects and other asocial companies. In general, there are a large number of facts that candidates try to hide, but in the end it turns out to be useless.
Probation
If you try to hide something from the polygraph, you can get a 100% refusal. In this case, you simply will not be taken to law enforcement agencies, regardless of your mental and physical condition. There is another possibility - you can be hired for a kind of probationary period. Your behavior will be closely monitored throughout this period to determine if you are suitable for the position or not. Such employees are called "conditional", and they receive hope for further service. However, as practice shows, their forecasts are not the most favorable - most of the "conditional" employees leave law enforcement agencies after the probationary period.
Escort
Since we are talking about the control of "conditional" employees, it is also worth noting that the JRC is not exclusively engaged in checking candidates entering the bodies. Also, the duties of specialists include medical and psychological support for police officers, during which psychologists monitor the state of mental health of employees.
After you have talked with the "HR" and passed a kind of dress code, you will most likely be sent to a full-time psychologist, although in some institutions this is done after passing the main commission and testing. But it does not matter, since it depends on the staff psychologist whether you will work here or not.
Usually this position is occupied by a girl of 22-30 years old, but this is not necessary. Your main task is to please the psychologist, to win over, and not to fit into any standards or patterns. After all, TsPD testing is carried out automatically and no one thinks how you answered a certain question, but here you have a living person in front of you and he will decide "to accept or not to accept."
So, first you will be asked to pass some tests - this is not JPC, but rather simple tests, type SMIL-minimult to roughly determine the main features of your character, personality and determine whether you are a frank person or a liar. Tests are different everywhere - somewhere they give 2 tests, somewhere 3, somewhere 5, but they are all similar.
There are no questions in tests, there are assertions. For example: "I'm afraid of the dark", the answer options are "true" and "false", but you should pay special attention to statements with double negatives: "I have never seen snow", the answer is "FALSE". I’ll make a reservation right away, the statements are repeated, only in different interpretations, the main task is to check for honesty, so it’s best, without much thought, to answer frankly so as not to screw up.
Another one of the proposed tests Luscher test that go everywhere. The examination procedure proceeds as follows: the subject is asked to choose the most pleasant color from the cards placed in front of him, without correlating it with the color of the clothes (whether it goes with the face, or with furniture upholstery, or with anything else, but only according to how much this color preferred over others.The selected standard is removed from the table or turned over, then the next one, and so on, until all colors have been selected.In this case, the psychologist writes down the number of each selected color standard.
Personally, on the advice of a psychologist friend, I always followed the rule of "traffic light" - first green, then yellow and then red. Well, then according to your mood - which one you like more, but black is always the last. And everything seemed to be back to normal.
Described below analysis technique Luscher, what and how, in his opinion, it should be, but in principle, it turns out the same thing:
The colors are divided into primary (1 - dark blue, 2 - blue-green, 3 - orange-red and 4 - light yellow) and additional, among which 7 (black) and 0 (gray) are achromatic, and 5 (violet ) and 6 (brown) - mixed. Primary colors symbolize basic psychological needs, which Luscher identified as the need for satisfaction and attachment (blue), the need for self-affirmation (green), the need to "act and succeed" (red) and the need to "look forward and hope" (yellow). Therefore, they are normal and with full balance should be in the first positions. Complementary colors are not given the importance that equates to the area of need. Their role is, as it were, dividing or diluting.According to Luscher, they are not psychological "primary elements" and are included in the experiment mainly to expand the effect of primary colors.There is another test with the choice of color - associative, that is, with what color do you associate yourself or something (someone). Here, too, everything is according to the principle of a traffic light: green is good, yellow is back and forth, red is bad. For example: family - green, work - yellow, drugs - red, death - black.
In the same test, on another page, you need to continue the sentences, well, there’s nothing complicated, the main thing is not to write nonsense like: “If I had extra money, I would......." - "..... ..... gave them to the poor", it is immediately clear that you are an asshole, and also stupid. There are no answer options here, so write what comes to mind, for example: "...... I went to rest at sea." Do not bother and do not try to seem smarter than you are.
When answering questions, try to use combinations less often: they told me, they sent me, etc., more often:I thought and decided, I was convinced, I made a choice. When asked about dismissal from a previous job, do not answer tritely, such as “didn’t work well with the team” or “conflict with the authorities”, you can answer that “I realized that this place was unpromising, I didn’t like the job and the salaryunstable, wanted to work for you for a long time, found out that there are vacancies and decided to take a chance" (well, or something like that) .... As for alcohol, the answer "on holidays" already annoys everyone, and a non-drinker in general is either lying or sick, so it would be much more original to say that "I can afford to drink a glass, but in an exceptionally significant ME date". Well, in general, the main thing is not to be smart, not to joke a lot (but not to be too tense), just try to win over and lie less.
Don't try to argue, but don't be too loyal either.
1. Express advice. If you are not confident in yourself when passing psychological diagnostics(psychodiagnostics), then choose from your acquaintances the one who, in your opinion, ideally matches the niche that you are trying to occupy or defend. Answer as he would.
2. If the instructions say that there are no right and wrong answers in the test, don't trust it.
3. Avoid extremes, be closer to the "golden mean", do not spit on yourself, but do not exalt yourself either. To the question "Do you always pay for travel in public transport"?" it's better to answer "no", because this is what the majority does. Otherwise, you are more likely to be suspected of frankness.
4. Many tests contain a "lie scale", i.e. have a number of provocative questions as in the previous example. And even if you always pay for travel, then you will get a plus sign on this scale. There are a lot of plus signs - your results will be recognized as unreliable. And then, at best, you will be asked to retake this test (most likely in a different form, with different questions). At worst, they will write something like "prone to indiscretion" in the conclusion, which can significantly reduce your rating. And in general, this can negatively affect the tone of the entire conclusion, because, believe me, psychologists really do not like unreliable results.
5. Sometimes there are such tests in which one question or statement occurs twice. They answered differently - you have a plus sign on the "lie scale". Try to remember the questions verbatim and answer the same questions in the same way.
6. Testing results can be greatly affected by the environment. If you don't like the testing conditions (noisy or poor lighting, for example), ask for better conditions, especially if your abilities, intelligence are being tested. Ask in the most correct form, intelligently, without annoying anyone. If they refuse you, then it is quite likely that this is such an idea, part of the plan. If a group is being surveyed, then asking to improve the situation only for you, you see, is stupid.
7. Upon completion of the testing procedure, try to photocopy the examination protocol, forms with your answers. They can also come in handy for a subsequent appeal (which, of course, is better not to bring), and will certainly help to avoid one or two negative judgments about you in the conclusion. If you turn to a familiar psychologist, he will help point out your mistakes.
8. Many tests are limited and timed. Find out from a psychologist full information on restrictions on how much time is allotted for answers. Be sure to come to the diagnostics with a watch: firstly, it can help you with planning time for answers, and secondly, the absence of a watch can affect your image (as a non-business person). If the psychologist stands with a stopwatch - do, of course, the task as quickly as possible. If not - use every chance to stretch the time. For example, if a psychologist reads questions to a group, be sure to ask the psychologist to repeat an incomprehensible or difficult question, at the end you can even ask him to give you personally a list of all the questions. If you work individually with a list of questions or a test book, this is a big plus for you. In the test (questionnaire) Cattell, for example, 16 personality scales. Among them - one for intelligence. There are no time limits. Sit and think about your health, do not rush anywhere.
9. You have the right to ask the psychologist for the name of the test that is being performed on you. This may be of use to you.
10. If you are selected (for work or school), then most likely you need to be smart sociable healthy rather than a stupid closed psycho. In other sections, we will touch on this important topic.
11. Reduce, if possible, your age. This may come in handy if you are about to take an intelligence test, where there is often a discount for younger people, and if you are not yet in your twenties (no distinction is made for older people).

Tasks for spatial thinking are designed to determine in the applicant a tendency to work with complex mechanisms, aggregates and their components.
Technical tests include professional tests. This is a test of knowledge of a specific industry, such as accounting, programming, law, etc. It is often the first test that is asked to be taken, and such tests can be published on the employer's company website and can be taken online.

how to answer psychological tests?Often for fun or for the purpose of self-knowledge, we answer psychological tests ... sometimes - we are simply forced to answer them when applying for a job ... so why not figure out the secrets of psychological testing?
Psychological Test No. 0 Response Bias(I think this test is generally the most important)
If you do not know how to correctly answer such questions - your psychological testing would be completely pointless.
Are you in a bad mood?
Are you sometimes wrong?
Are you sometimes wrong?
Do you sometimes offend your loved ones?
Do you sometimes find yourself unable to concentrate?
Sometimes you do not have time to do everything?
Do you have bad days?
==============
If you answer no to such questions more than 1-2 times? This means that you have a tendency to tell lies about yourself - which means that you may not be interviewed by a psychologist at all when applying for a job ... it means that you are not objective towards yourself ... this means that it is generally pointless for you to answer psychological tests ! You lie too often and your test results will often be biased.
Psychological test number 1. Your favorite colors - test Luscher
You need to arrange the cards of different colors in order from the most pleasant to the most unpleasant. What does it mean? This test is aimed at determining the emotional state. Each card symbolizes a person's needs:
red color - the need for action
yellow - the need for striving for the goal, hope
green - the need to assert oneself;
blue - the need for affection, constancy;
purple - escape from reality;
brown - the need for protection;
black - depression.
The location of the cards means the following: the first two are the aspirations of a person, 3 and 4 are the true state of affairs, 5 and 6 are an indifferent attitude, 7 and 8 are antipathy, suppression.
Key to the test: in the first four must be red, yellow, blue, green- in what order, it is not so important. The arrangement of cards in an order close to the original draws a portrait of a purposeful, active person.
Psychological test number 2. Drawing lesson
You are offered to draw a house, a tree, a person. What does it mean? It is believed that in this way a person can demonstrate his self-perception in the world. In this psychological test, every detail matters: the location of the drawing on the sheet (located in the center, a proportional drawing indicates self-confidence), a single composition of all objects indicates the integrity of the individual, what kind of object will be displayed.
It is also important what will be drawn first: a house is a need for security, a person is an obsession with oneself, a tree is a need for vital energy. In addition, the tree is a metaphor for aspirations (oak - self-confidence, willow - on the contrary - uncertainty); a person is a metaphor for the perception of oneself by other people; house - a metaphor for the perception of oneself by a person (a castle - narcissism, a rickety hut - low self-esteem, dissatisfaction with oneself).
Key: Your drawing should be realistic and proportionate. To demonstrate your sociability and willingness to work in a team, do not forget about such details: the road to the porch (contact), the roots of the tree (connection with the team), windows and doors (goodwill and openness), the sun (cheerfulness), a fruit tree (practicality). ), pet (care).
Psychological test number 3. Story
You are shown pictures of people in different life situations and ask them to comment: what is happening; what the person thinks about; why is he doing this?
What does it mean? Based on the interpretation of the pictures, it is possible to determine the leading life scenarios of a person, in other words - "whoever hurts - he talks about it." It is believed that a person designs situations in pictures for his life and gives out his fears, desires, view of the world. So, for example, if a picture shows a crying or laughing person, then it is expected that by commenting on it, you will talk about your motives for joy or sadness.
Key: you need to control your answers and interpret the pictures in the most positive way.
Psychological test number 4. Inkblot - Rorschach test
You are shown pictures of a shapeless blob (usually symmetrical) and asked to describe what you see. What does it mean? This psychological test is somewhat similar to the previous one, it also reveals your true attitude to the world. A positive interpretation of pictures (for example, communication between people) speaks of you as an active, sociable, positive person, a negative one (in a blot you saw a monster, a dangerous animal) indicates that you have a lot of unreasonable fears or deep stress.
Key: if you associate a picture with something obviously negative, comment on it in a neutral way. For example, don't say, "I see people fighting," but say, "People are emotionally connected."
Psychological test number 5. IQ test
You are offered for a certain period of time (from 30 minutes) to answer several questions (from 40 to 200) of different directions - from mathematical problems to logical puzzles. What does it mean? These psychological tests are designed to determine the so-called Intelligence Coefficient.
