Screen Your Law Enforcement Clients for Fitness for Duty
This module helps you screen public safety job applicants, current public safety employees, probation officers and parole officers who are referred for psychological evaluation for mandated fitness for duty, weapon carrying screening, and a variety of special unit assignments (e.g., SWAT, hostage negotiation).
Features and benefits
- Profiles compare the applicant’s scores with those of the PAI community sample and approximately 18,000 police and other public safety applicants, either as a whole or by gender and ethnic group.
- Additional profiles contrast the applicant's scores with norms from a group of applicants in four job classifications (police officer, communications dispatcher, corrections officer, and firefighter/EMT) who completed at least 1 year in that position.
- Reports can be generated from on-screen administrations of the PAI or hand-entry of PAI item responses from the Item/Response Booklet. You may also use the On-Site Scanning Module.
- Now available, the PAI Item and Response report provides item information including item numbers, item text, and client responses after generating a score or interpretive report. Information is presented by scale/subscale, providing valuable context for individuals’ item responses. Available for free on PARiConnect.
Note: Customers planning to use the on-screen administration feature of this module must also purchase PAI-SP Counter Serial Number uses.
