This statement measures the trait of deliberation, which reflects how carefully someone considers actions before acting. In policing, deliberation is a tricky trait. On one hand, officers must avoid being overly impulsive, as rash decisions can have serious consequences. On the other hand, law enforcement often requires quick thinking and immediate action in high-pressure situations, where overthinking can delay critical responses and even create dangerous outcomes. 

Rating this statement too high could suggest someone who hesitates excessively, potentially slowing response times in urgent situations. Rating it moderately or even slightly lower can indicate that a candidate is capable of using experience and judgment to make rapid, effective decisions under pressure, balancing careful thought with the need to act quickly when situations demand it. 

This statement measures the Trust facet of Agreeableness, which reflects the extent to which a person tends to believe in the honesty and good intentions of others. For law enforcement officers, trust is a delicate balance. Officers must be approachable, fair, and willing to work collaboratively with the community, which requires a baseline level of trust in others. 

At the same time, officers need to remain vigilant and cautious, recognizing that not everyone follows the law or has good intentions. Rating this statement  slightly agree indicates that a candidate can work positively with the public while maintaining the professional skepticism necessary to enforce the law effectively and protect themselves and others. Too high a rating may suggest naivety, while too low may signal difficulty building rapport with the community.

The correct answer is B

Bright Red Umbrella. The red-and-white striped umbrella appears in the image, but it is not at the described location.  

When practicing for the CJBAT, you should develop a method of associating every object with its specific location in the scene. Linking "what" you see with "where" it is situated helps you avoid being misled by similar distractors found elsewhere in the image. 

The correct answer is C 

A light brown dog. The parrot might be the first thing that jumps out at you in the options because it is such a unique and striking detail in the image. However, while the parrot is present, it is perched high on a lamp post, not standing on the ground as the question describes. To succeed on the CJBAT, you must overcome the impulse to choose an answer simply because it is a prominent memory. The real challenge here is to slow down and verify every detail of the question: since the question specifies an animal on the ground, the parrot must be ruled out, leaving the dog as the only correct choice 

The correct answer is D.
Answer A refers to Glenday's feelings regarding others spending time in Edinburgh, instead of him actually being there.
Answer B says Glenday wished he studied in Edinburgh, and not that he did study in Edinburgh.
Answer C says Glenday often traveled to Edinburgh, not that he studied there.

The correct answer is C

According to the text for someone to be considered as a missing person they must not be in their residence and meet one of the clauses, so Janice who is over the age of 18, didn’t disappear under suspicions circumstances, isn’t implied to be a possible victim of trafficking, his own legal guardian and not likely to commit self-harm. Thus, Janice shouldn’t be considered as missing.  

(A) Is incorrect because Daphne is both missing from her residence and is missing under suspicious circumstances. Thus, this case should be considered a missing person case. 
(B) Is incorrect because Ron is both missing from his residence and under the age of 18. Thus, this case should be considered a missing person case. 
(D) Is incorrect because John is both missing from his residence and because of the case can be considered suspicious. Thus, this case should be considered a missing person case. 

The correct answer is B

Since 2010 there has been an upward trend in the crime rate in District 2, and in 2014 it had the highest crime rate of all three districts. It would therefore be most effective to assign an extra task force to this district to try and prevent any further escalation in crime.

Although the crime rate was highest in District 1 from 2010 – 2013, it has been decreasing every year from 2012.
