ABSTRACT
To be able to make the police interventions tactically, legally, ethically and morally defendable, one must start with determine what is the best practical approach based on which the actually most common tasks are (type-tasks) including their inherent dangers (type-incidents) and to learn about what the natural human limitations are under such situations. Hence, instead of designing training programs based on assumptive conclusions from non-empirical experience only, it is motivated to highlight these matters through formalized experience collection (i.e., finding and defining type-incidents). If the formalized experience collection is detailed enough it also gives valuable qualitative as well as quantitative data about our natural human limitations in real-life incidents. This combined with knowledge about training systems, didactics and about human neurobiology and other related aspects of physiology, cognition and skill learning, is useful when designing effective training. Continuous data collection, combined with effective and fast analyses might even make it possible to deliver training aimed at solving identified current criminal practices harming police officers in a specific area.
