PPCT TEST EXAM QUESTIONS AND
ANSWERS. VERIFIED 2025/2026.
The TPR Use of Force System - ANS applies human factor research to design of the training
system
Human factor research - ANS is defined as the study of human capabilities and limitations
within a specific domain.
High risk Human factors is a unique domain, as the domain itself is a _______ environment. -
ANS High Risk
Threat Pattern Recognition (TPR) - ANS is a system that examines the patterns associated
with an assault or lethal assault, and engineers a tactical solution based on science and motor
performance.
The research indicates officers who have received proper Threat Pattern Recognition (TPR)
training decrease their ________ time during deadly force assaults and enhance their precision.
- ANS reaction
The two visual pathways are: - ANS Cortical Visual Pathway
Sub-Cortical Visual Pathway
1 @COPYRIGHT 2025/2026 ALLRIGHTS RESERVED.
, The sub-cortical visual pathway processes a visual image in - ANS 0.012 seconds
The Cortical visual pathway processes a visual image in - ANS 0.33 seconds
Studies discovered that the assailant's movement time can be as fast as - ANS 0.37 seconds
51.9% of the victim officers are within - ANS 0-5 feet of the assailant
19.2% of the victim officers are within - ANS 6-10 feet of the assailant
AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM CONTROLS INVOLUNTARY ACTIONS AND IS DIVIDED INTO TWO
BRANCHES: - ANS PARASYMPATHETIC(PNS)
SYMPATHETIC(SNS)
You can experience up to - ANS 70% REDUCTION IN PERIPHERAL VISION.
Inverted-U-Law: - ANS Concept that depicts the relationship between heart rate and
performance and examines the heart rate zone for optimal performance.
Optimal heart rate zone is - ANS 115-145 bpm (beats per minute)
Proteins: - ANS Builds and maintains muscle and used as an energy source during times of
stress (increase mental performance)
ATP/PC: - ANS Burns for 10-15 seconds- once exhausted, performance drops by 45% within
30 seconds.
