Intentional Analysis In Psychological Research, Rodger E. Broome Phd
Intentional Analysis In Psychological Research, Rodger E. Broome Phd
Rodger E. Broome
http://phenomenologyblog.com/?p=878 Giorgi’s approach to psychological analysis is an analysis of intentionality at the psychological level rather than at the universal level of philosophy. In short, phenomenological research psychologists do not aim at finding universal a priori facts about mental life, but rather to illuminate the lived-experiences of people in various kinds of situations. The purpose of using a Husserlian approach to intentional analysis is to get at the mental acts to see how they are synthesized by the mind into personal meanings. With that in mind, the researcher examines the personal meanings and generates a unified and coherent whole from …
Deadly Paradox Of Self-Defense, Rodger E. Broome Phd
Deadly Paradox Of Self-Defense, Rodger E. Broome Phd
Rodger E. Broome
Police deadly force is not intended to kill, but its purpose is to stop a violent person from hurting others. It is a desperate measure to bring someone physically under control, even at the risk of taking his or her life. In my research, the officers’ lived experience with shooting another person was paradoxical. Each shot fired by the officers was the most horrible thing they had ever done while being vital to surviving the encounters. Every bullet that hit its mark improved the likelihood that the officer would live while each bullet extinguished the life of the adversary. The …
Existential Cycling, Rodger E. Broome Phd
Existential Cycling, Rodger E. Broome Phd
Rodger E. Broome
As I reflected on my thoughts, I reflected on my reflections while my body was hammering through the revolutions of the machine I was riding. I was feeling alive! Pulse racing, hard breathing, and beginning to sweat, I could feel myself cutting through the air as my race carved a rut through the light breeze. There is a transcendence that can be experienced when one is overcoming his or her normal human limitations. Driving power through this highly engineered piece of metal, carbon fiber, and rubber machinery to propel my body at 20 MPH down a city street is expansive …
Fulfilling The Mission - Police Tactical Psychology Bulletin, Rodger E. Broome Phd
Fulfilling The Mission - Police Tactical Psychology Bulletin, Rodger E. Broome Phd
Rodger E. Broome
I don’t know if it is still a stock question in hiring and promotional processes or whether it is just to cliché to use, but “why do you what to be a…” is an important question when considering one’s job choice. In the beginning, aspiring police officers and rookies who are becoming cops are driven by a motivation to become a member of something bigger than themselves.

What's The Problem? - Police Tactical Psychology Bulletin, Rodger E. Broome Phd
Rodger E. Broome
An obvious fact is that police officers are problem solvers. Sometimes the most obvious things in life are also those we don’t spend much time reflecting upon.
The Psychology Of "Othering" And The Fears Of Feminizing The Fire Services Through Gender Inclusiveness, Rodger E. Broome Phd
The Psychology Of "Othering" And The Fears Of Feminizing The Fire Services Through Gender Inclusiveness, Rodger E. Broome Phd
Rodger E. Broome
Editor’s Note: In searching for answers for the way things are – you sometimes have to look at things from a different viewpoint. iWomen thought that Dr. Broome has an interesting perspective as he does consider whether we contribute to our (all women in the fire service) own obstacles by not promoting
A Helmet-Cam For Emergency Responders’ Experience, Rodger E. Broome Phd
A Helmet-Cam For Emergency Responders’ Experience, Rodger E. Broome Phd
Rodger E. Broome
http://phenomenologyblog.com/?p=341 I like to use the analogy of the “helmet cam” (helmet mounted video camera) to describe the Giorgi’s (2009) descriptive phenomenological method of psychology in its applications to police and public safety psychology. The helmet cam gives the viewer of the video a first-person (or subjective) viewpoint that is different than that of a third-party spectator or witness. Helmet cams have also become more popular in television sports coverage. This is because it can give a richer vicarious experience of having the experience. I use the helmet cam analogy because it presents the event’s perspective from the participant’s rather …

Meta-communication is the message behind the explicit message(s) in language. In other words, when we say something we always say more than what was there in the words and sentences. There are presumptions and hidden premises that are there which makes each verbal utterance “pregnant” with meaning of which even the speaker is not fully aware.
Deliver Us From Evil - Police Tactical Psychology Bulletin, Rodger E. Broome Phd
Deliver Us From Evil - Police Tactical Psychology Bulletin, Rodger E. Broome Phd
Rodger E. Broome
There is no hero or protector without a menace from which to protect or save others. Therefore, it is essential to understanding our adversaries better so that we may better appreciate our service to our citizens
Family Systems - Police Tactical Psychology Bulletin, Rodger E. Broome Phd
Family Systems - Police Tactical Psychology Bulletin, Rodger E. Broome Phd
Rodger E. Broome
In the criminal justice system, we deal with people in terms of their individual rights and actions. But often times, police officers are called to deal with families in conflict or turmoil. In these situations, police have to work within the framework of individual rights, responsibilities, and duties, but often are frustrated, confounded or inhibited by complex family dynamics.
Powerful Questions - Police Tactical Psychology Bulletin, Rodger E. Broome Phd
Powerful Questions - Police Tactical Psychology Bulletin, Rodger E. Broome Phd
Rodger E. Broome
Powerful questions are those questions that lead the person asked to reflect. What this means is that by asking powerful questions, an officer can lead a witness or suspect to mine their own mind to seek answers. There are tactical ways in which this concept can be used.
