PPCT TRAINING || QUESTIONS AND CORRECT DETAILED
ANSWERS.
Human Factors correct answers Is the study of human capabilities and human limitations within
a specific domain
High-Risk Human Factors correct answers Is the study of human capabilities and limitations, in a
high risk environment that is dynamic (chaotic), fluid (uncertain), time compressed and life
threatening
Threat Pattern Recognition correct answers is a system that examines the patterns associated
with an assault or a lethal assault, and engineers a tactical solution based on science and motor
performance. The TPR System embraces the realities of time, and engineers solutions that
change tactical time-lines.
This system is an outcome of PPCT's Tactical, Legal and Medical research, as well as PPCT'S
Survival Reaction Time research
TPR (Threat Pattern Recognition) Training correct answers Decrease their reaction time during a
deadly force assault and enhance their precision.
Officers feloniously killed with firearms (Distance) 2001-2010 correct answers 0-5 ft = 51.9%.
6-10 ft = 19.2%. 0-10 ft = 71.1%. Total Officers Killed= 468
Siddle Hontz Study correct answers Assailant movement time was .37 seconds.
Officers Response Time from holster was 1.9 seconds without aiming, 2.4 seconds when aiming.
What are the primary pathways of vision correct answers Sub cortical (pre-attentive) visual
Cortical (attentive) visual
, Sub cortical (pre-attentive) visual correct answers Processes images in .012
Cortical (attentive) visual correct answers Processes images in .33
Peripheral vision correct answers Can be reduced by 70% when Sympathetic Nervous System
(SNS) is Activated.
Automatic Nervous System is divided into two branches correct answers Parasympathetic
nervous system and Sympathetic nervous system
parasympathetic nervous system correct answers The parasympathetic nervous system allows us
to "rest and digest". This allows us to save energy - the blood pressure decreases, the heart will
beat slower and with less force, the pupils will constrict, mucus production increases and
digestion can start.
Homeostasis correct answers Is the balance between "Flight and Fight" syndrome and the "rest
and digest" syndrome
Homeostasis, there is a high level of cerebral cortex processing, which allows a per to be smart,
deliberate, and precise. This is the desired environment where performance is optimal.
Sympathetic nervous system Triggers correct answers -Objective threat perceptions
-Objective fear perceptions
-Physical exhaustion
-Startle Response
Inverted-U correct answers The Inverted-U Law proposes that performance will gradually
deteriorate as stress (arousal) increases. The catastrophe theory differs by citing a vertical
deterioration in performance, which is immediate. In other words, the bottom falls out.
