Purcellville Police Department, Chief Cynthia “Psycho” McAlister NEVER underwent a Police Psychological! While every other member of the Purcellville Police Department was REQUIRED to undergo a Police Psychological, McAlister refused... and it’s become pretty clear why she did.
The police psychological exam is perhaps the most important but least understood aspects of preemployment screening for law enforcement and other criminal justice careers. It's one of the last steps in the hiring process for police officers, and it can make or break the hiring decision for all police officers, especially those in leadership positions.
The exam is actually a battery of tests that includes several components. Typically, the exam starts with a pretest self-interview or evaluation. Next comes a series of multiple-choice tests or surveys. Finally, there will usually be a sit-down interview with a psychologist with experience in public safety issues.
The evaluation takes the totality of all these components into account to help the psychologist render a final opinion as to the applicant's suitability for the law enforcement profession. That determination is usually expressed in one of two ways:
(1) Low risk, medium risk, or high risk for hiring
(2)Acceptable, marginal, or unacceptable for hiring
Police psychological screening evaluates a number of personality traits to help formulate an opinion as to whether a candidate would be a good hiring choice. These traits include:
• "Impulse control”
• General intelligence
• Judgment
• Ability to perform boring or tedious tasks
• Reasonable courage
• Honesty
• Integrity
• Personal bias or lack of bias
• Ability to tolerate stress
• What motivated the candidate to choose law enforcement
• Dependability
• Ability to deal with supervision
• Appropriate attitudes towards sexuality
• Prior drug use
These particular traits represent areas that have been determined over time to be important to explore when evaluating law enforcement candidates. Police officers are held to a high ethical standard, and the police psychological exam serves as one more way to screen out candidates who might demonstrate unacceptable, undesirable, even dangerous personality traits.
The unhinged Chief of Purcellville Police, Cynthia McAlister, is constantly questioned in most of the above listed areas. It is of great concern the individual who holds the highest ranking law enforcement position in Purcellville was never required to undergo a Police Psychological Screen, not even after 7 members of her Law Enforcement complained about her irrational displays, uncontrollable temper, blatant dishonesty, constant paranoia, and overall intolerable behavior. This poses a huge safety risk for all the residents.
