PROFESSIONAL PSYCHOLOGICAL SELECTION AT RECEIPT OF CANDIDATES FOR SERVICE IN LAW-ENFORCEMENT BODIES OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION - ORDER AND DIFFICULTIES

In this article the question of possibilities of implementation of more effective professional psychological selection at receipt of candidates for service in law-enforcement bodies of the Russian Federation is considered. There are some aspects of the police activities related to the specifics of the professional activities associated with difficulties and tension, and sometimes with the risk to life. The police are called upon to protect the rights and freedoms of man and citizen, so it is natural to expect that the ranks of the police should be filled only by the most trained and dedicated people. Great help in this is provided by professional psychological selection aimed at identifying the personal and business qualities of the candidate. The paper states that the conclusions about the aptitude of candidates, drawn up by psychologists, should have a greater status, and not be only advisory in nature.
