It is noteworthy to mention that the creation and dissemination of this SSPO study guide is done with the explicit permission of SIGMA Assessments. This study guide is intended to be a general, supplemental support for applicants and does not in any manner guarantee nor impact the outcome of test scores.  \nPart B Introduction  \nThe SSPO (Sigma Survey for Police Officers) was designed to identify candidates who have the cognitive skills to use sound practical judgment in police situations and who are capable of writing meaningful and credible police incident reports. The SSPO (Part B Exam) is broken into two major sections, starting with Section A, consists of 44 questions which measure: spelling, vocabulary, punctuation, and grammar. Section B consists of 30 questions and is based on Police Problem-Solving. This section contains descriptions of situations that are relevant to the work of police officers. Each situation is followed by a series of multiple-choice questions that require you to identify the best response or course of action. You should avoid blind guessing because there is a penalty for selecting incorrect answers. Please note if you are unsure about the answer to a question, you may leave it blank and return to it later. Questions left blank are unscored when the assessment is submitted for evaluation at the end.  \nDisclaimer: Applicants that purchase online cognitive tests and/or applicants that utilize free practice tests online shall assume the sole responsibility for seeking and/or practicing cognitive tests online. SIGMA ASSESSMENTS, the OACP and TNT Justice Consultants DO NOT promote or endorse the use of any specific practice test platform. This guide is meant to be utilized as supplemental support and general preparation advice for applicants.  \n The SSPO is a timed test of 35 minutes, therefore, it is suggested that applicants maintain a good pace and do not spend too much time on a single question.  \n If the applicant is planning on using practice tests, please ensure those tests use the same question style as outlined in this document.  \n It is suggested that applicants use practice tests to determine which components are most challenging and to practice those components more than other sections.  \n It is noteworthy to mention that practice tests are not about memorizing. Rather, they are steeped in understanding the questions which will only assist in answering those or similar question in the future.  \n Before taking the SSPO, applicants should ensure that they are well rested and in a quiet setting with no distractions.  \n In general, test prep companies are essentially providing their clients with a variety of cognitive ability tests to practice. These may assist applicants in becoming familiar with cognitive tests. However, these DO NOT guarantee success nor can it be determined whether practice tests will impact the overall score.  \n While there are some math questions included in the police problem solving section, they are not the focus of the assessment. The math questions are word problems involving only the basic operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division) .  \nPart B: SSPO   \nSection A: Incident Report Writing Aptitude  \nPolice officers are frequently required to write incident reports. Sections A contains three sections, Spelling, Vocabulary, and Grammar and Punctuation, which assess skills important to writing these reports  \nSPELLING  \nThe essence of testing how to spell properly is considered to the main component of communication. Spelling also seeks to test literacy and the ability to recognise the more difficult words in a sentence.  \nDuring the exam, you will see a list of 28 words that a police officer might use in writing a report.
