Part of the evaluation process for police officers includes testing. Most departments use the
MMPI2-RF. A candidate should be “ free from any physical, emotional, or mental conditions which might adversely affect his or her exercising the powers or duties of a police officer“

Some of the attributes that hiring agencies would like to test Are:
Integrity
Stress tolerance
Decision making in judgment
Interpersonal skills
Conscientiousness and dependability
adaptability /flexibility

Candidates should know that determining the meaning of a test score for a particular test taker requires integrating it with additional information from other sources, such as personal history questionnaires, Employment records, background investigations, healthcare records, clinical interview and other tests.
The above evaluation process is done by the agency psychologists and is often referred to as the “oral psych”
