O treinamento "force-on-force" no aprimoramento técnico do cadete da Polícia Militar do Maranhão

Abstract

Force-on-force training= is the type of simulation that involves people against people, using devices similar to real weapons in order to train situations that would be impossible in the firing range, such as simulating an assault and faithfully reproducing frictions and attitudinal challenges of this type of occurrence. The present work aims to measure the impact of Force-on-Force training on first, third and fourth year cadets of the Officer Training Course in São Luís - Ma. The cross-sectional, qualitative-quantitative study carried out with 54 cadets. Being 29 from the first year, 12 from the third and 13 from the fourth year. Data collection was carried out from July 1 to 15, 2022. The data collection instrument was a questionnaire prepared in Google Forms composed of sociodemographic data and data on the impact of force-on-force training composed of questions of multiple choice, likert type. Data analysis was performed based on the proposed objectives, using Microsoft Excel 2016, and presented in graphs and tables. Most cadets considered it opportune to develop this training, and to have skills in the correct handling, breakdowns of weapons and shooting techniques. As far as force-on-force training is concerned, the simulation improves the lessons learned with static shooting and works on posture in real situations. In this way, this work can also serve as a starting point for the development of new methods, new processes and training control mechanisms and even new research in order to qualify the skills and abilities essential to the training of officers
