Description
The M-PULSE is an effective pre-conditioning screening instrument designed for law enforcement officer selection. The inventory may be used either pre-offer to identify a candidates’ liability potential, or post-offer as part of a total assessment battery that includes historical, interview and observational data.

- Interpersonal Difficulties
- Off Duty Misconduct
- Property Damage
- Motor Vehicle Accidents
- Inappropriate Use of Weapon
- Excessive Force
- Sexually Offensive Conduct
- Criminal Conduct
- Potential for Reprimand/Suspension
- Potential for Resignation
- Potential for Termination
- Chemical Abuse/Dependency
- Procedural and Conduct Mistakes
- Misuse of Vehicle
- Discharge of Weapon
- Unprofessional Conduct
- Racially Offensive Conduct
- Lawsuit Potential
How to Use the Assessment
Results are produced for 18 liability scales which help predict officer misconduct, and 20 empirical scales that measure attitudes, values and beliefs. The M-PULSE also includes two validity scales – Impression Management and Test Attitude, that when elevated indicate if a candidate is trying to make a good impression or has a negative attitude toward the testing process.
Reports
Profile Reports provide a graphical display of the M-PULSE liability, empirical and validity scale scores, as well as a list of individual item responses.
Follow-Up Reports provide an opportunity to track officers’ conduct since their critical M-PULSE assessments were completed.
