INTRODUCTION This document represents preliminary efforts by NCJr.S to develop a technical information package addressing job task analysis. The final doc­ ument should provide organizations involved in law enforcement selection, training, career development, and improved productivity with useful docu­ mentation on relevant projects and publications designed to provide assistance in developing a systematic approach to the law enforcement function. This document contains four sections: Section I - contains a bibliography on the subject of job task analysis. Section II - contains a copy of Chapter 5 "Police Personnel" from the 1967 Task Force Report: The Police prepared by the Presidentls Commission on Law Enforcement and the Administration of Justice. Section III - contains a copy of Chapter 16 from the National Advisory Commission on Criminal Justice Standards and Goa~s rerort on Police. Section IV - contains the Introduction to Project Star _ Police Officer Role Training Program developed under the auspices of the California Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training - 1974. \ We are hopeful that through your input this preliminary effort can be turned into a document that will impact upon the quality of law en­ forcement in the years to come.

    2021 Fellows' Scientific Training Day NIMH Intramural Research Programs September 24, 2021 Anxiety-related striatal connectivity in adolescence and adulthood E. Weiss, C. Gaillard, B. Benson, D. Pine, and M. Ernst Introduction Adolescence is a period marked by a steep increase in the incidence of anxiety. Research suggests that the striatum plays a role in in attention, learning, and motivation, which all show perturbations in anxiety disorders. Given the importance of development and the relative paucity of clinical developmental neuroimaging studies in anxiety, we exploited a large sample of adults and adolescents characterized as either healthy or clinically anxious. Our goal was to examine differences of anxiety-related striatal connectivity deficits between adolescence and adults. We used resting state fMRI data, which provide the basic level of communication of striatal regions with key functional regions. Method Adolescents (44 patients, 63 healthy, age range: 8-18 years) and adults (36 patients, 88 healthy, age range: 18-44 years) completed a resting state scan. All participants were assessed for psychiatric morbidity via KSADS for adolescents and SCID-I for adults. Participants completed questionnaires including Behavioral Inhibition and Activation Scale (BIS/BAS scale), Fear of Negative Evaluation (FNE), and State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI). A General Linear Model (GLM) analysis was run in AFNI with Age and Diagnosis as between-subject factors controlling for scanner, sex, and IQ. Spearman correlation analyses explored brain-behavior associations. Results For this presentation, we focus on the ventral caudate because of its role in motivation, emotion, and cognition and we refer to this connectivity as "iFC". The Age by Diagnosis interaction was significant on the iFC between the ventral caudate (VC) and dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC).

  • Continuity and Diversity in Nineteenth Century and Contemporary Racehorse Training
    Continuity and Diversity in Nineteenth Century and Contemporary Racehorse Training Laura Jayne Westgarth Manchester Metropolitan University Thesis presented in fulfilment of an MA by Research September 2014 2 Continuity and Diversity in Nineteenth Century and Contemporary Racehorse Training Abstract: This thesis explores stability and diversity in the approaches taken to training National Hunt racehorses by nineteenth-century trainers and those of the modern day. The work first explores horseracing as a sport in the nineteenth and early twentieth century, including consideration of social class, gambling, and the structures surrounding horseracing, particularly the operation of the Jockey Club, as a means of establishing the way in which horseracing operated in this period. This part of the thesis also explains how racing employees operated, the costs of training, and how the role of the trainer evolved from grooms training for their employer into that of public trainers with large racing yards. This section is followed by consideration of the training methods employed during the nineteenth century, with a focus on the practices of purging, sweating, exercise, diet, and physicing, as well as explaining how racing yards were managed. The key research findings of the thesis are then presented in two chapters, the first of which discusses the way in which 'communities of practice' have operated in training stables, both in the context of the nineteenth century and in the context of contemporary racing. These 'communities' allow the passing on of knowledge through generations of racing trainers, through kinship as well as through close working relationships. Some biographical examples of both historical and contemporary trainers and their kinship groups/communities are presented.

  • Clicker Bridging Stimulus Efficacy
    Clicker Bridging Stimulus Efficacy By Lindsay A. Wood, MA, CTC Clicker Bridging Stimulus Efficacy 2 Abstract Acquisition of a multiple component task, such as approaching and touching a target apparatus on cue, plays an important role in animal training and husbandry. Experimental training of two groups of 10 naïve dogs (Canis familiaris) to perform the target task differed only by the assigned bridging stimulus: a clicker or spoken word "good." Although both types of bridging stimuli are used in the training field to indicate the precise instance of correct behavior, this study represents the first systematic comparison of the efficacy of these two types of bridging stimuli. There was a decrease of over 1/3 in training time and number of required reinforcements for the clicker as compared to the verbal condition group. The clicker trained dogs achieved behavior acquisition in significantly (p < .05) fewer minutes and required significantly fewer primary reinforcements than verbal condition dogs. The difference in effectiveness of the two bridging stimuli was most apparent at the onset of each new task component. It appears that use of the clicker, by providing a more precise marker than a verbal bridging stimulus, is responsible for superior acquisition of complex behaviors such as that studied here. The facilitation of learning provided by the clicker bridging stimulus has important implications for animal training, especially when professionals are confronted with time constraints. The potential of the clicker stimulus to improve animal learning throughout the entire process of a behavior may not only increase the rate of behavior acquisition, but also reduce animal frustration and further enhance the relationship between trainer and animal.
