Syftet med studien var att utforska vilka erfarenheter och upplevelser kvinnliga polisstudenter hade av kön och genus under polisutbildningen. Data samlades in genom intervjuer med fyra kvinnliga polisstudenter. Materialet analyserades därefter utifrån den kvalitativa analysmetoden tematisk analys. Ur den tematiska analysen konstruerades fyra huvudteman: Bilden av en polis, Den kvinnliga polisen, Uppfattningar om jämlikhet samt Genusfrågornas plats på polisutbildningen. Studiens deltagare målade upp en komplex bild kring hur de upplevde att en kvinnlig polisstudent “skall vara”. Vissa slutsatser som denna studie drar faller i linje med tidigare forskning inom området. Detta då det föreföll som att föreställningar och normer för hur en polis “skall vara” fortsätter att påverka de kvinnliga studenterna på polisutbildningen. Vidare resultat från denna studie visar på att kvinnliga polisstudenter upplevde att den pågående rörelsen inom polisutbildningen mot ett mjukare förhållningssätt med högre värdering av traditionellt mer feminina egenskaper var positivt märkbar.

The study examined the validity of using the California Psychological Inventory (CPI) as a tool for police selection. The mean CPI profile of 211 police applicants was first compared to that of the CPI norms. Five performance criterion measures--retention on the job, academy grades, supervisory ratings, commendations, and reprimands of police officers--were studied to investigate their relationships with the CPI scales. The results indicated that there were significant mean differences on all the CPI scales between police applicants and CPI norms. The scale of Flexibility significantly differentiated the criterion groups of retention on the job. The CPI was useful in predicting academy performance; however, it did not correlate well with job performance as measured by supervisory ratings, commendations, and reprimands.

No. of bitstreams: 1 Samuel Robes Loureiro.pdf: 3139704 bytes, checksum: 355f0e5732bc87ce87459dbdc125d343 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2017-07-21 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES / This thesis examines the ways in which the histories of the Military School of Realengo (EMR), the Military Police Academy of Barro Branco (APMBB) and the Officers’ Training School (EFO) of the Military Police of the Federal District (PMDF) are interwoven. The main objective was to uncover the process of the creation and consolidation of a particular military school model present throughout the country: Military Police Academies (APMs). The research sought to prove the hypothesis that the APM prototype would have resulted from a mixture of the curriculum of the professional course of the PMDF, created in 1920, and the traditions invented by the José Pessoa reform in the EMR, between 1931 and 1934, and also that the first school which underwent this transformation was the APMBB, between 1935 and 1938. From there, the model would have been disseminated to all Brazilian Military Police (PMs), including the PMDF itself. The research advances studies in the history of school institutions and educational intellectuals, with an emphasis on the processes of the invention of traditions, the reformulation of curricula, and the history of school subjects. Starting from a criticism of the theoretical-methodological reference of Althusserian structuralism, the work references ideas such as Thompson's notion of experience, Hobsbawm’s invention of tradition, and the meaning of the term intellectual as attributed by Sirinelli. This reference was supplemented by notions from Anthropology like Gilberto Velho's “field of possibilities” and Celso Castro's “military spirit”. Specific references from the history of education also provided support for the research, including notions of curriculum from Goodson, Forquin, Sacristan and Circe Bittencourt, as well as Cherval's ideas about the history of school subjects. As research involving the invention of traditions, the origins and the stabilization of these traditions were examined, which involved taking a historical cross-section covering the founding of the Military Division of the Royal Guard of Police in 1809 to the consolidation, in 1958, of the ceremony in which the cadets receive their swords in the EFO of the PMDF. For this purpose, an investigation of a variety of sources was necessary: personal archives, official documents, legislation, archives of materials, press, among others. It was possible to conclude that that the APMs were an invention of Brazilian army officers who adapted the traditions idealized for the EMR between 1931 and 1934 and the curriculum of the PMDF’s professional course from 1920. They created a new type of military school that was established in São Paulo at the APMBB between 1935 and 1938, and then disseminated throughout the country. The purpose of this invention would be to facilitate the transformation of state military forces into MPs, the army’s reserve and auxiliary force. However, such a standard was not imposed on state military forces, it was desired; and the companies not only assimilated but improved this new type of military school. As a result, state military forces became PMs, the army's reserve force, in order to survive the imminent threat of extinction after the Revolution of 1930 and the end of the governors' policies / A presente tese estuda as imbricações entre as histórias da Escola Militar do Realengo (EMR), da Academia de Polícia Militar do Barro Branco (APMBB) e da Escola de Formação de Oficiais (EsFO) da Polícia Militar do Distrito Federal (PMDF). O principal objetivo foi desvendar o processo de gênese e consolidação de um modelo específico de escola militar presente em todo o país: as Academias de Polícia Militar (APMs). Buscou-se comprovar a hipótese de que o protótipo de APM seria resultante de um amálgama entre os currículos do curso profissional da PMDF, criado em 1920, e as tradições inventadas pela reforma José Pessoa na EMR, entre 1931 e 1934, e que a primeira escola que sofreu essa transformação foi a APMBB, entre 1935 e 1938. A partir dela, o modelo teria sido disseminado para todas as Polícias Militares (PMs) do Brasil, incluindo a própria PMDF. A pesquisa avança nos estudos da história das instituições escolares e dos intelectuais da educação, com ênfase nos processos de invenção das tradições, reformulação de currículo e na história das disciplinas escolares. A partir da crítica ao referencial teórico e metodológico do estruturalismo althusseriano, foram utilizados referenciais como a noção de experiência de Thompson, o processo de invenção das tradições de Hobsbawm e a acepção de intelectual de Sirinelli. Esse referencial foi complementado por noções da Antropologia, como o “campo de possibilidades” de Gilberto Velho e o “espírito militar” de Celso Castro. Deram suporte ainda referenciais específicos da história da educação, como as noções de currículo de Goodson, Forquin, Sacristán e Circe Bittencourt, e as ideias sobre história das disciplinas escolares de Chervel. Por tratar-se de uma pesquisa que envolve a invenção de tradições, foram examinadas as origens e a estabilização dessas mesmas tradições, o que implicou um recorte histórico que englobou desde a fundação da Divisão Militar da Guarda Real de Polícia, em 1809, até a consolidação da solenidade de entrega de espadins na EsFO da PMDF, em 1958. Para tal, foi necessária a investigação em diversos tipos de fontes, como arquivos pessoais, documentos oficiais, legislação, acervo material, imprensa, entre outros. Pudemos concluir que as APMs foram uma invenção de oficiais do Exército brasileiro que adaptaram as tradições idealizadas para a EMR, entre 1931 e 1934, e os currículos do curso profissional da PMDF de 1920. Com isso, criaram um novo tipo de escola militar que foi implementado em São Paulo, na APMBB, entre 1935 e 1938, depois disseminado para o país. O objetivo dessa invenção seria facilitar a transformação das forças militares estaduais em PMs, força reserva e auxiliar do Exército. Porém, tal padrão não foi imposto às forças militares estaduais, foi desejado, e as corporações não só assimilaram como aprimoraram esse novo tipo de escola militar. Com isso, as forças militares estaduais transformaram-se em PMs, força reserva do Exército, visando sobreviver à ameaça iminente de extinção após a Revolução de 1930 e o fim da política dos governadores

Diskussionen om att akademisera polisutbildningen i Sverige har under en tid förekommit främst på regeringsnivå. Ett förslag angående att införa en kandidatexamen på polisutbildningen har även framförts av Polisförbundet, där de uttrycker ett positivt förhållningssätt till akademiseringen. Till följd av detta har ett kvalitativt förhållningssätt tagits för att erhålla en fördjupad bild kring ämnet ur ett polisiärt perspektiv. Studien syftar således till att undersöka vilka uppfattningar, i form av möjligheter och begränsningar, som yrkesverksamma poliser och polisstudenter har kring en akademisering av polisutbildningen. Vidare har även eventuella likheter och skillnader mellan dessa undersökts. Studien baseras på elva fokuserade intervjuer där materialet illustrerar flertalet möjligheter och begränsningar samt likheter och skillnader. Materialet har analyserats tematiskt och resulterade i två teman där ett behandlar polisutbildningen och det andra berör det efterföljande yrkeslivet. Resultatet berör möjligheter och begränsningar samt likheter och skillnader gällande de sökande till utbildningen, utbildningens innehåll, den teoretiska och praktiska kunskapen som erbjuds under utbildningen samt den kandidatexamen som diskuteras att införas. Dessutom berör resultatet även de yrkesroller och arbetssätt som förekommer inom Polismyndigheten, forskning inom det polisiära arbetet samt allmänhetens tilltro till polisen. Sammantaget visar resultatet att den polisiära yrkesutövningen upplevs främst som praktiskt, men där teoretiska ämnen och inriktningar även anses vara väsentliga för både utbildning och yrkesutövning. En kandidatexamen kan vara fördelaktig för vissa yrkesroller och för dem med teoretiskt eller akademiskt intresse, men har samtidigt ansetts kunna bidra med flera problematiska aspekter. Exempelvis lyfts en farhåga för att det praktiska ska åsidosättas eller att praktiska individer avstår att söka utbildningen. Trots att flera möjligheter belyses anses en akademisering av polisutbildningen på programnivå vara omotiverad, där andra förslag på alternativa vägar lyfts som bättre alternativ. / An academic police education in Sweden has been discussed on the state level. Polisförbundet has proposed to implement a bachelor’s thesis in police education where they express a positive approach to an academic police education. This study has a qualitative approach to obtain a deeper understanding from a police perspective. The study aims to investigate the perceptions of possibilities and limitations that working officers and police students experience regarding a police education with a bachelor. It also investigates potential similarities and variations between these. This study is based on eleven focused interviews where many possibilities and limitations, but also similarities and variations, are illustrated. The material has been analyzed thematically and resulted in two overarching themes where one processes police education and the other refers to the upcoming life of work. The results refer to possibilities and limitations, and also similarities and variations, regarding the applicants, the content of the education, the theoretical and practical knowledge during the education, and also the potential bachelor’s degree. The results also refer to the professional roles and working methods in Polismyndigheten, research on police work and the public’s trust in the police. All together the result shows that the police practice is experienced as practical, but theoretical subjects are also essential for the education and police practice. A bachelor’s degree can be favorable for some professional roles and for those who have more theoretical and academic interest. It has also been considered to contribute with problematic aspects with concerns that practical aspects were being set aside or that fewer practical individuals will apply. Even though there are several possibilities, an academic police education including a bachelor thesis is considered unmotivated. Other alternative educational routes are suggested to be a better option.
