“…Моторичке способности ПС могу бити важан показатељ предикције успешности завршетка студија (Shusko et al, 2017;Lockie et al, 2019). Због тога, први корак који претходи едукацији будућих полицијских службеника представља процес селекције, у којем је један од главних параметара тестирање нивоа физичких способности у циљу одабира најспособнијих кандидата (Strating et al, 2010;Janković, Koropanovski, 2017;Koropanovski et al, 2020). Након селекције, током школовања, неопходни су даље развијање, одржавање и контрола моторичких способности.…”

The system of selection for the admission to the University of Criminal Investigation and Police Studies in Belgrade (UCIPS) is designed as a multidimensional model in order to select the individuals of utmost quality. One of the segments is the assessment of the level of general physical abilities (GPA). The aim of this research was to determine the differences between the initial level of candidates' GPA in terms of the success achieved in the entrance exam as well as the success of the study process. General physical abilities of 618 male candidates were evaluated as part of the UCIPS enrolment process. The total sample of respondents was divided into sub-samples: candidates who were not enrolled (NE), candidates who were enrolled but not graduated (ENG) and those who were enrolled and graduated (EG). It was found that both groups of enrolled candidates (ENG and EG) had statistically significantly better GPA compared to NE. There were no statistically significant differences between the ENG and the EG. Considering the fact that the results of the GPA assessment tests, which hypothetically represent 20% of the possible total score, depend on a training process that involves persistence, continuity and commitment, it can be concluded that constant physical exercise could be one of the preconditions for success in the entrance exam to enrol UCIPS.

“…У истраживању су узете оне моторичке варијабле за које је у досадашњим истраживањима утврђено да покривају простор значајан за конкретну структуру која доминира у професионалним пословима које обавља полиција (Vučković, Dopsaj & Blagojević, 2001;Paspalj, 2013;Janković & Koropanovski, 2017), као и тестови који се у методологији тестирања основних физичких својстава спортиста користе у савременој пракси, а примену су нашли и за потребе полиције (Dopsaj, Milošević & Blagojević, 2000;Амановић и сар, 2004). Сва мерења су реализовали предметни наставници .…”

The aim of this research was to determine the differences between the levels of basic motor skills (BMS) at the entrance exam in relation to BMS in the semester exam in Special Physical Education 1 (SPE 1). The sample consisted of 119 students (39 girls and 80 boys) enrolled at the University of Criminal Investigation and Police Studies. Student's t-test was used to determine the differences between the observed variables, while the eta square (e2) was calculated to determine effect size. There was a statistically significant improvement for the maximum isometric force of the fingers of the dominant hand (t = -4.296; p <0.000), the repetitive strength of the forearm extensors (t = -4.218; p <0.000), the repetitive strength of the trunk flexors (t = -4.191; p <0.000) and general aerobic endurance (t = -2.473; p <0.018) in female students, as well as for the explosive strength of the leg extensors (t = -2.246; p <0.028), the repetitive strength of the trunk flexors (t = -5.152; p < 0.000), general aerobic endurance (t = -2.512; p <0.021) and maximum isometric force of the back (t = -14.283; p <0.000) among the students. The results of e2 demonstrated that the effect of SPE 1 classes on most observed motor skills in the students of both sexes was strong.

This paper aimed to determine the differences in achievement at the entrance exam between candidates who attended preparatory classes (PC) and those who independently prepared for enrollment at the University of Criminal Investigation and Police Studies (UCIPS). The study included 599 respondents (257 women and 342 men) who were divided into subsamples: 132 women (WPC) and 158 men (MPC) who attended PC and 125 women (WNPC), and 184 men (MNPC) who independently prepared for enrollment in the UCIPS. The entrance exam, in addition to the success from high school, also includes tests for assessment of aptitude and abilities (TAA), namely: the test of knowledge of the Serbian language and literature (TSL), the test of general knowledge (TGN) and test of assessment of general physical fitness (GPF). Differences between groups were determined by t-test for independent samples at a significance level of p <0.05. It was found that WPC had statistically significantly better results from TSL (14.35%) and GPF (14.43%), while no statistically significant difference was found in TGN. In men who attended PC, the results of all TAA segments were significantly better: TSL by 21.17%, TGN by 10.51% and GPF by 27.65%. The obtained results indicate that the structure and manner of performing the PC, which include detailed acquaintance with the procedures, determination of the current level, correction of errors, and recommendations for further improvement, positively impacted the candidates' achievement at the UCIPS entrance exam.
