Bien que les règles de droits et des directives administratives dictent leur conduite, les policiers jouissent d’une latitude considérable dans la manière d’appliquer la loi et de dispenser des services. Puisque l’exercice efficient de toute forme d’autorité nécessite la reconnaissance de sa légitimité (Tyler, 2004), plus l’application de leurs pouvoirs discrétionnaires est jugée arbitraire ou excessive, plus les citoyens risquent d’utiliser des mécanismes normaux d’opposition ou de riposte. Dans cette optique, la présente étude cherche à départager les causes des 15 023 épisodes de voie de fait, menace, harcèlement, entrave et intimidation, qualifiés de défiance, dont les policiers du Service de police de la ville de Montréal (SPVM) ont été la cible entre 1998-2008 selon leur registre des événements (Module d’information policière – MIP). Elle présume qu’à interactions constantes entre la police et les citoyens, les comportements de défiance policière seront fonction du niveau de désordre du quartier et des caractéristiques des personnes impliquées. Plus les policiers interceptent de jeunes, de minorités ethniques et d’individus associés aux gangs de rue, plus ils risquent d’être défiés. Elle suppose également que la probabilité qu’une intervention soit défiée dépend de l’excessivité des activités policières menées dans le quartier. Plus un quartier est sur-contrôlé par rapport à son volume de crimes (overpoliced), plus le climat local est tendu, plus les policiers sont perçus comme étant illégitimes et plus ils risquent d’être défiés lorsqu’ils procèdent à une intervention. Enfin, les comportements de défiance sont peut-être simplement fonction du niveau d’interactions entre les policiers et les citoyens, à conditions sociales et criminogènes des quartiers tenues constantes. Une série d’analyses de corrélation tend à confirmer que les comportements de défiance varient en fonction de l’âge, de l’ethnicité et de l’appartenance à un gang de rue de l’auteur. Par contre, les conditions sociales et criminogènes des quartiers paraissent être des causes antécédentes à la défiance puisqu’elles encouragent un volume plus élevé d’interventions dans les quartiers désorganisés, lequel influe sur le nombre d’incidents de défiance. Contrairement à notre hypothèse, les résultats tendent à démontrer que les policiers risquent davantage d’être défiés dans les quartiers sous-contrôlés (underpoliced). Quant à elles, les analyses multiniveaux suggèrent que le nombre d’incidents de défiance augmente à chaque fois qu’une intervention policière est effectuée, mais que cette augmentation est influencée par les quartiers propices aux activités criminelles des gangs de rue. En ce sens, il est probable que l’approche policière dans les quartiers d’activités « gangs de rue » soit différente, par souci de protection ou par anticipation de problèmes, résultant plus fréquemment en des actes de défiance à l’égard des policiers. / Although the rules of law and administrative directives dictate their conduct, police officers have considerable discretion in how to apply the law and provide services. Since the efficient conduct of all forms of authority requires the awareness of its legitimacy (Tyler, 2004), the more their discretionary powers is deemed arbitrary or excessive, the more citizens are likely to use normal objection or opposition mechanisms. In this context, this study seeks to disentangle the causes of the 15 023 cases of assaults, threats, harassment, obstruction and intimidation, described as defiance, which the police officers of the Service de police de la ville de Montréal (SPVM) were the target of between 1998-2008 according to their register of events (Module d’information policière - MIP). It presumes that with constant interactions level between police and citizens, behaviors of police mistrust will depend on the level of neighborhood disorder and the characteristics of the persons involved. The more the police intercept youths, ethnic minorities and individuals associated with street gangs, the more they are likely to be challenged. It also assumes that the probability that a police intervention be challenged depends on the excessiveness of police activities conducted in the district. The more the neighborhood is overpoliced versus the volume of crimes, the more the local climate is tense, the more the police officers are perceived as being unlawful and they are more likely to be challenged when making an intervention. Finally, defiant behavior may just depend on the level of interaction between police officers and citizens, social and criminogenic conditions of neighborhoods being consistent. A series of correlation analysis tends to confirm that defiant behavior vary according to age, ethnicity and belonging to a street gang of the author. However, the social and criminogenic conditions of neighborhoods appear to be caused by prior defiant behavior because they encourage a higher volume of interventions in the disorganized neighborhoods, which affects the number defiant behavior incidents. Contrary to our hypothesis, the results suggest that police officers are more likely to be challenged in underpoliced neighborhoods. In turn, the multilevel analysis suggests that the number of defiant behavior incidents increases each time a police intervention is performed, but this increase is influenced by neighborhoods conducive to street gang criminal activities. To this effort, it is likely that the police approach in the street gang’s neighborhood activities is different, for the sake of protection or in anticipation of problems, resulting more frequently in defiant behavior acts against police officers.

Research indicates that law enforcement officers (LEOs) have a higher prevalence of developing coronary artery disease (CAD) compared to the general population. Sleep deprivation and physical inactivity have been found to be related to many risk factors for CAD. This cross-sectional study examined the health status and the relationship between sleep and physical activity outcomes versus CAD risk factors among 27 University LEOs. The subjects’ health behaviors, and CAD and metabolic syndrome risk factors were described using basic statistics. Accelerometer derived sleep and physical activity outcomes were correlated to measures of health to identify potential relationships. 33% of LEOs were classified as moderate risk for CAD; 92% had dyslipidemia, 58% had elevated triglycerides, 23% had prediabetes, and 22% suffered from obesity. The administrators and first shift LEOs slept more compared to second or third shift LEOs. The LEOs were more sedentary while on-duty. In addition, sedentary time was correlated to systolic blood pressure. LEOs accumulated 24.4 min·d-1 of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA), but only spent 9.3 min·d-1 in continuous bouts of MVPA. In conclusion, multiple CAD risk factors were present in these LEOs and achieving adequate amounts of physical activity and sleep may decrease their risk of developing chronic diseases.

Fields of psychology research, such as Health Psychology, Positive Psychology and Positive Organizational Behavior, have considered the resilience as an important way to understand the positive and healthy aspects of human beings. This work aims to expand knowledge about the resilience and their relations with other constructs in the organizational context. For this, the objective of this research was to verify the predictive capacity of intragroup conflict (relationship and task), of social support at work (emotional, informational and instrumental) and of professional self-concept (health, realization, self-confidence and competence) on resilience (positive adaptation or acceptance of change, spirituality, resignation towards life, personal competence and persistence in the face of difficulty) of military police. The study included 133 military police officers of a battalion in the state of Sao Paulo, prevailing male subjects (97.7%), mean age 30 years (SD = 5.7). The following scales were used to measure the variables:Resilience Rating Scale reduced, Intragroup Conflict Scale, the Scale of Perceived Social Support at Work and Self-Concept Scale. The data were submitted to descriptive calculations and at analyses of multiple lineal regression standard. The results indicated that the model that grouped the antecedent variables (intragroup conflict, social support at work and professional selfconcept) significantly explained the variance of the dimensions of resilience: 30% of persistence in the face of difficulties, 29% of positive adaptation or acceptance of change, 28% of personal competence and 11% of spirituality. Variables that were statistically significant impact on persistence in the face of difficulties were emotional support at work, whose direction of the prediction was opposite, and confidence, whose direction of prediction was direct. Positive adaptation or acceptance of change was as inverse predictor the health and as direct predictor the self-confidence. The personal competence had a significant impact on the variable selfconfidence, wich was a direct predictor. Spirituality, in turn, had a single significant predictor, the variable realization, whose direction of prediction was direct. The results suggest that among the independent variables, the professional self-concept demonstrated greater explanatory power of the variance in resilience. In light of the theory of the area were discussed these findings. Finally,limitations and the suggestion a research agenda that confirm and expand the results of this research were presented. / A resiliência é um construto que remete à habilidade do ser humano de ter êxito frente às adversidades da vida, superá-las e inclusive, ser fortalecido ou transformado por elas. Campos de investigações da psicologia, como Psicologia da Saúde, Psicologia Positiva e Comportamento Organizacional Positivo, têm considerado a resiliência como uma importante via para a compreensão dos aspectos positivos e saudáveis dos indivíduos. Este trabalho pretendeu ampliar o conhecimento acerca da resiliência e suas relações com outros construtos no contexto organizacional. Para isto, definiu-se como objetivo geral deste estudo verificar a capacidade preditiva do conflito intragrupal (tarefa e relacionamento), do suporte social no trabalho (emocional, informacional e instrumental) e do autoconceito profissional (saúde, realização, autoconfiança e competência) sobre a resiliência (adaptação ou aceitação positiva de mudanças, espiritualidade, resignação diante da vida, competência pessoal e persistência diante das dificuldades) de policiais militares. Participaram do estudo 133 policiais militares de um batalhão do interior do estado de São Paulo, prevalecendo indivíduos do sexo masculino (97,7%), com idade média de 30 anos (DP= 5,7). Para a medida das variáveis foram utilizadas as seguintes escalas validadas: Escala de Avaliação de Resiliência reduzida, Escala de Conflitos Intragrupais, Escala de Percepção de Suporte Social no Trabalho e a Escala de Autoconceito Profissional. Os dados foram submetidos a cálculos descritivos e a análises de regressão linear múltipla padrão. Os resultados indicaram que o modelo que reunia as variáveis antecedentes (conflito intragrupal, suporte social no trabalho e autoconceito profissional) explicou significativamente a variância das dimensões da resiliência: 30% da persistência diante das dificuldades, 29% da adaptação ou aceitação positiva de mudanças, 28% da competência pessoal e 11% da espiritualidade. As variáveis que tiveram impacto estatisticamente importante sobre a persistência diante das dificuldades foram o suporte emocional no trabalho, cuja direção da predição foi inversa, e autoconfiança, cuja direção da predição foi direta. A adaptação ou aceitação positiva de mudanças teve como preditor inverso a variável saúde e como preditor direto a autoconfiança. A competência pessoal teve impacto significativo da variável autoconfiança, que se mostrou um preditor direto. A espiritualidade, por sua vez, teve um único preditor significante, a variável realização, cuja direção da predição foi direta. Os resultados sugerem que dentre as variáveis antecedentes, o autoconceito profissional evidenciou maior poder de explicação da variância da resiliência. À luz da literatura da área foram discutidos estes achados. Por fim, foram apresentadas as limitações e a proposta de uma agenda de pesquisa que contribua para confirmação e ampliação dos resultados desta investigação.

As sociedades ocidentais têm vivenciado processos difusos pelos quais, por um lado, institucionalizam sistemas políticos democráticos, com a ampliação de uma gama de direitos individuais e sociais. Por outro lado, têm vivenciado o crescimento de processos de desestabilização referentes ao controle social, ancorados em fenômenos tais como o crescimento das formas de violência e de criminalidade. Esta ambivalência tem sido caracterizada pelo conceito de modernidade tardia. Neste quadro, o papel da polícia, instituição que emergiu ligada à expansão do poder do Estado, de manter a ordem, garantir a segurança das cidades e lutar contras as formas de delinquência, tem sido foco de críticas, notadamente no que se refere à questão do uso da força. O clássico modelo educativo dado aos policiais – notadamente aos policiais militares – passa a ser alvo frequente de análises que apregoam a necessidade da construção de um novo perfil profissional. Modelo que auxilie as instituições policiais a superarem os padrões militarizados, hierárquicos, ligados a uma postura combativa e focada no crime. Não obstante, a formação dos policiais tem transcorrido, de forma recorrente, dentro das corporações policiais, caracterizadas pela existência de padrões de conduta disciplinares que mantém uma conformação específica de educação, bem como consolida mecanismos formativos muito diferentes daqueles preconizados pelos críticos. Este emaranhado de elementos que perpassam os processos formativos de policiais militares (brasileiros e paraguaios) conforma um campo de saberes/poderes que delimitam os embates travados em torno da formação dos policiais. / The Western societies have experienced diffused processes by which, on the one hand, institutionalize democratic political systems, with the expansion of several individual and social rights. On the other hand, they have experienced the development of destabilization processes concerning the social control, based on phenomena such as the development of forms of violence and crime. This ambivalence has been characterized by the concept of late modernity. In this context, the police role, an institution that emerged related to the expansion of State power, is to keep the order, ensure safety of cities and fight against forms of delinquency, but this has been a focus of criticism, especially regarding the issue of the use of force. The classical model of education, given to the policemen, especially the military police, becomes a frequent target of analyses that proclaim the necessity to establish a new professional profile. A model that assists the police authorities to overcome the militarized, hierarchical patterns, which are associated to a combative attitude and focused on crime. Nevertheless, the training of police has passed on a recurring basis, inside the police companies, characterized by the existence of disciplinary standards of conduction that maintains a conformation-specific education, training and consolidating very different mechanisms from those recommended by the critics. This mixing of elements that run through the training processes for police officers (Brazilian and Paraguayan) forms a field of knowledge/power that surrounds the difficulties lived by the policemen concerning their training.

The subject of this study is the recognition of the link between service in the Police of the Czech Republic (PCR) and abuse of substances for supporting muscle growth and anabolic steroids. The service of PCR officer is often been connected to physical strenght and psychical resistence, which is given by training, personality and self-confidence of the officer. Masculinity and muscular body is seen by some officers as essential for this job and the standard there is shifted when compared to the other people. Anabolic Steroids - substances accesible on the illicit market - can be abused for fast muscle growth and outreaching the limits of ordinary man. The first part of this study is theoretical part, in which the aspects of police service are described, as they are risk factors for development of exercise addiction and abuse of substances for supporting muscle growth. The second part is practical part, where the research is described among the PCR officers, who are exercising regularly and are ranked in the Public Order Police Service. This research is searching for similarities between usage of supplements and Anabolic Steroids and subjectively viewed professional requirements. Also the amount of subjectively seen medical problems was compared between group of steroid-using officers and those...

In view of this objective, two studies were carried out. In the first one, it was intended to investigate SR, knowledge and concepts about HR as well as the participants empathic distress. Scales and questionnaires about HR were used, besides an empathy scale turned to social issues to 176 cadets of both genders, 1st and 3rd year students. Also, the Technique of Association Free from Words was utilized. In both studies, parametric and non-parametric statistics were used. The results for the first study show: 1) the existence of a HR representational field and a correspondence between this field s content and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights; 2) the existence of negative SR in relation to the accomplishment of HR and; 3) a low empathic distress in respect to some social groups. From these results, the second study s sample was selected and it sought after promoting a change in the participants SR, making them aware of the police officer s role as a defender and promoter of HR. 48 cadets took part in this research, all of whom distributed at random in three groups: two were experimental, and one, of control. The control group attended classes about HR with a teacher from the institution in which the research was realized. The experimental groups participated in one of the distinct types of intervention: with a Discursive Rational Technique (DRT) and with a Discursive-Affective Rational Technique (DART). The DRT consisted of the exposure and discussion of the contents defined in planning of the discipline Citizenship and Human Rights , and discussions about real life s dilemmas. The DART adopted procedures used in the DRT, added by psycho-dramatic activities. At the end of the intervention program, participants of the three groups responded again to the instruments mentioned in study I. The results of the analyses that refer to the objective measure do not indicate significant differences between the experimental and control groups, and between the pre-tests and post-tests. As for subjective evaluations, when the pre-test and the post-test in the experimental groups are compared, changes are perceived: 1) in the knowledge of HR from low to high knowledge -; 2) in the concepts of HR from poorly-elaborated to well-elaborated -; 3) in the representations of HR from individual to group and; 4) in the representations of the police force from an idealized to a realistic view. Differences between experimental groups are also observed: 1) in the knowledge the participants scores submitted to the DART were higher than those submitted to the DRT and; 2) in the representation of the military police participants submitted to the DRT showed specific representations, and the ones submitted to the DART, universal representations. Results are discussed in light of the SRT, of Doise s psycho-sociologic theory, and of empirical studies which investigate HR in the SR field. / O objetivo principal deste trabalho é verificar a influência de diferentes práticas interventivas sobre as representações sociais (RS) dos direitos humanos (DH) em alunos de um curso de formação de oficiais da polícia militar - cadetes. Tendo em vista este objetivo, foram realizados dois estudos. No primeiro, buscou-se investigar as RS, o conhecimento e as concepções sobre os DH, bem como a sensibilidade empática dos participantes. Foram administrados escalas e questionários sobre os DH, além de uma escala de empatia voltada para questões sociais a 176 cadetes, de ambos os sexos, alunos do 1o e do 3o ano. Também foi utilizada a Técnica da Associação Livre de Palavras. Nos dois estudos foram utilizadas estatísticas paramétricas e não paramétricas. Os resultados do primeiro estudo indicam: 1) a existência de um campo representacional dos DH e uma correspondência entre o conteúdo desse campo e a Declaração Universal dos Direitos Humanos; 2) a existência de RS negativas com relação à efetivação dos DH e; 3) uma baixa sensibilidade empática com respeito a alguns grupos sociais. A partir desses resultados, foi selecionada a amostra do segundo estudo, que visou promover uma mudança nas RS dos participantes, conscientizando-os quanto ao papel do policial enquanto defensor e promotor dos DH. Participaram deste estudo 48 cadetes, que foram distribuídos, randomicamente, em três grupos: dois experimentais e um de controle. O grupo controle assistiu a aulas sobre os DH com um professor da instituição onde foi realizada a pesquisa. Os grupos experimentais participaram de um dos tipos distintos de intervenção: com uma Técnica Racional Discursiva (TRD) e com uma Técnica Racional Discursivo-Afetiva (TRDA). A TRD consistiu na exposição e discussão dos conteúdos definidos no plano da disciplina Cidadania e Direitos Humanos , e de discussões de dilemas da vida real. A TRDA adotou os procedimentos utilizados na TRD, acrescidos de atividades psicodramáticas. Ao final do programa de intervenção, os participantes dos três grupos responderam novamente aos instrumentos mencionados no Estudo I. Os resultados das análises referentes às medidas objetivas não indicam diferenças significativas entre os grupos experimentais e de controle e entre os pré-testes e os pós-testes. Quanto às avaliações subjetivas, quando se compara o pré-teste com o pós-teste nos grupos experimentais verificam-se mudanças: 1) no conhecimento dos DH de um menor para um maior conhecimento-; 2) nas concepções de DH de pouco elaboradas para bem elaboradas ; 3) nas representações dos DH de individuais para grupais e; 4) nas representações da polícia - de uma visão idealizada para uma visão realista. Também são observadas diferenças entre os grupos experimentais: 1) no conhecimento os escores dos participantes submetidos à TRDA foram mais elevados do que os submetidos à TRD e; 2) na representação da polícia militar os participantes submetidos à TRD apresentaram representações específicas e os submetidos à TRDA, representações universais. Os resultados são discutidos à luz da TRS, da teoria psicossociológica de Doise e de estudos empíricos que investigam os DH na esfera das RS.

This dissertation analyzed the daily life of policewomen who work in operational service of the military police of Sergipe. Sought to understand the strategies proposed by the power relations established in the context of work, in order to list possible situations of disrespect and discrimination, considering the model of manhood still be prevalent in everyday police practices. The search took as central proposal of work performed by women police officers who are embedded in the operating units, as is the case of shock Battalion, unit observed by analyzing the dynamics that emerge from social relationships. In this sense, the problem took place around understanding how the work of women in operational units, which are places constructed microwave counter action in your templates, or is seen as male strongholds, is characterized in the context of gender and power relations that are established. In addition to the observations in the field, nine interviews were conducted with women who work or worked in operational policing. The dissertation was structured in three chapters. The first deals with the conditions for the inclusion of women in the police, the aspects involving the socialization process specific police institutions. Also presented are the pillars that upholds this order and the parameters that support the power relationships that develop. Gender issues are discussed, as well as the Justice of the quest for social recognition. The second chapter presents a general approach of studies on women in police institutions, women in the world of work, reaching typically masculine professions. It then presents the Military Police context of Sergipe, the insertion of women police officers, a brief history of shock Battalions Brazil level and Sergipe, their everyday actions to reach the theoretical approaches that address the standards and procedures necessary for the proper functioning of the operational units as well as the skills/abilities required for the performance of police work imposed to that body. In the third chapter, prioritize the gender social relations that are established under the DPO from data obtained in the research in order to understand them in accordance with the established theoretical parameters. This dissertation allows you to show that the participation of working women is wrapped by the operational PM diversity of established powers, by the non-recognition of certain actions at the expense of maintaining the current model of masculinity, but also points to new ways of doing the policing. Women unite to the model already established, extending them artfully with the female attributes such as flexibility and attention. With this increase the mobility of actions, innovating and surprising labour practices and in social interactions. / Esta dissertação analisou o cotidiano das mulheres policiais que atuam no serviço operacional da Polícia Militar de Sergipe. Procurou compreender as estratégias propostas pelas relações de força estabelecidas no âmbito de trabalho, a fim de elencar possíveis situações de desrespeito e discriminação, haja vista o modelo de masculinidade ainda ser predominante no cotidiano das práticas policiais. A pesquisa teve como proposta central o estudo do trabalho realizado por mulheres policiais que estão inseridas nas unidades operacionais, como é o caso do Batalhão de Choque, unidade observada, analisando, portanto, as dinâmicas que emergem das relações sociais de gênero. Nesse sentido, a problemática se deu em torno de compreender como o trabalho da mulher nas unidades operacionais, que são lugares construídos de modo masculinizado em seus modelos de ação, ou seja, vistos como redutos masculinos, se caracteriza no âmbito das relações de gênero e poder que ali são estabelecidas. Além das observações no campo, foram realizadas nove entrevistas com mulheres que atuam ou atuaram no policiamento operacional. A dissertação foi estruturada em três capítulos. O primeiro trata das condicionantes para a inserção das mulheres nas polícias, os aspectos que envolvem o processo de socialização específico das instituições policiais. São apresentados também os pilares que sustêm esta ordem e os parâmetros que sustentam as relações de poder que ali se desenvolvem. São discutidas as questões de gênero, bem como as de justiça que suscitam a busca por reconhecimento social. O segundo capítulo apresenta uma abordagem geral dos estudos sobre mulheres nas instituições policiais, mulheres no mundo do trabalho, chegando às profissões tipicamente masculinas. Em seguida, apresenta o contexto Polícia Militar de Sergipe, a inserção das mulheres policiais, um breve histórico dos Batalhões de Choque no Brasil e de Sergipe, suas ações cotidianas até chegar às abordagens teóricas que tratam dos padrões e procedimentos necessários ao bom funcionamento das unidades operacionais bem como as competências/habilidades necessárias ao desempenho do trabalho policial instituídas para aquele corpo social. No terceiro capítulo, priorizam-se as relações sociais de gênero que se estabelecem no âmbito do policiamento ostensivo a partir dos dados obtidos na pesquisa, de modo a compreendê-las segundo os parâmetros teóricos estabelecidos. Esta dissertação permite mostrar que a participação das mulheres no trabalho operacional da PM está envolta pela diversidade de poderes estabelecidos, pelo não reconhecimento de determinadas ações em detrimento da manutenção do modelo de masculinidade vigente, mas também aponta novas formas de fazer o policiamento. As mulheres se aliam ao modelo já estabelecido, ampliando-os astuciosamente com os atributos femininos, tais como flexibilidade e atenção. Com isso aumentam a mobilidade das ações, inovando e surpreendendo nas práticas laborais e nas interações sociais.

The main research question refers to the possibility of criticizing ideological aspects of the state civil police officer s educational philosophy - since she is the society s disciplinary agent in order to propose an educational philosophy based on the social historical process and its proposals for the performance of his tasks. The starting point is my own practice entwined with the theoretical considerations of the interpretative model I used in this study. Thus, by understanding praxis as both theory and practice, I have presented my experience and the dialectical method. After the theoretical-practical principles are launched, I present the main elements that comprise the history of the Civil Police. Then, I determine the concepts of civil police and civil police officer. I also present a systematic study on the main theoretical categories found in this research: Power, Authority, Social Control, Discipline and Ideology. Eventually, I discuss the contemporary philosophical conception of the state civil police officer s education, based on the data previously collected. The aim is to understand the role of the Civil Police Academy, the civil police officer s discipline, and the image she gives to the society. To sum up, the general results confirm the hypothesis that nowadays the civil police officers in Rio Grande do Sul state are taught an Educational Philosophy that disciplines the society they belong to. Besides, some unexpected conclusions were arrived at, such as the existence of a hidden educational philosophy and the civil police officer s alienation. / O trabalho objetiva investigar a filosofia educacional contemporânea da Polícia Civil do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul. A questão orientadora da pesquisa refere-se à possibilidade de realizar a crítica dos aspectos ideológicos da filosofia educacional do policial civil do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul, enquanto agente disciplinador da sociedade, para propor uma filosofia educacional do policial civil baseada na análise crítica do processo histórico social e suas propostas para o desempenho das funções do referido policial. O ponto de partida é a própria prática do autor entrelaçada à apresentação teórica do modelo interpretativo utilizado em todo o estudo. Assim, entendendo a práxis como teoria e prática conjunta, eu tenho presente a experiência e o método dialético. Uma vez lançados os fundamentos teórico-práticos, são apresentados os principais elementos que compõem a história da Polícia Civil. Em seguida, são determinados os conceitos de Polícia Civil e de policial civil. Do mesmo modo, é apresentado um estudo sistemático sobre as principais categorias teóricas que estão envolvidas no trabalho: Poder, Autoridade, Controle Social, Disciplina e Ideologia. Por fim, discute-se a concepção filosófica contemporânea da educação do policial civil do estado do Rio Grande do Sul, com base nos dados coletados, buscando compreender o papel da Academia de Polícia Civil, a disciplina do policial civil e a imagem que deste é transmitida à sociedade. Em síntese, o resultado geral alcançado comprova a hipótese de que atualmente os policiais civis do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul são educados com uma filosofia da educação para disciplinar a sociedade a que pertencem. Além disso, foram alcançadas conclusões imprevistas, como a existência de uma Filosofia Educacional oculta e a alienação do Policial Civil.

The work of a police officer is stressful and could potentially lead to burnout. As a result, a variety of reactions may occur which include, cynicism, abuse of authority, and in extreme cases suicide. One method which has been proven to be effective in treating officer stress is counseling; however, because of the policing subculture the opportunity to seek counseling has been ignored. In order to successfully manage officer stress, the subculture must be dealt with. Additionally, the officers' family must also be acknowledged as being affected by officer burnout. Counseling services must be made available to the officer's family and through training they can become a source of support instead of an added source of stress to the officer.
