TACTICAL BEHAVIOR ​SCIENCE

THE THREE PILLARS OF THE PEACE 4A SYSTEM

---

ADAPTIVE
​DE-ESCALATIOn

An effective de-escalation system is long overdue. With PEACE 4A, de-escalation and behavioral psychology meet to create the most advanced 4-step de-escalation system for police.
Anti-escalation is vital in today's world. Prevent the conflict before it begins.

VIOLENCE PREDICTION

The violent behavior prediction module gives officers the ability to spot clear signals of impending violent action, giving them more time to create distance, de-escalate or draw their weapon if needed.
​Based on over 19,000 hours of video analysis and 20 years of research.

ADVANCED HUMAN SKILLS

In today's world, amongst public mistrust, and people more willing to engage police in combat, your officers have to singlehandedly create compliance, build trust, and maintain the reputation of the department. Equip them with the skills to build a strong relationship with the community through trust and composure.

VIOLENCE PREDICTION:

THE MAJOR ISSUE

Previously, an officer would need to wait till an aggressor would attack to react. The issue is that long after the aggressor had time to think through plans, the officer has had to wait until they attack. 

PREDICTION

Instead of waiting for an attack (the black zone), officers can spot behaviors in the blue, yellow, and red zones. The time saved may be minutes or seconds, but that critical time gap is right where it matters.

• Violence prediction in the field
• ADVANCED psychological de-escalation tactics
• Field Interviewing
• Compliance enhancement
• ​Deception detection

SAFETY  |  PROTECTION  |  COMMUNITY TRUST

OVERVIEW

This course presents science and tactics for recognizing violent behavior, reading proven nonverbal signals, and field interrogation techniques to enhance officer safety, and human compliance.

Law enforcement officers face the very unique challenge of maintaining community relations and facing potential violence simultaneously. 

The ability to read and influence human behavior at this level will give officers the ability to assess situations with greater clarity, improve community trust, and obtain compliance in difficult situations.  

The class is for law enforcement professionals of all levels and provides key insights that aren’t available in any other behavior program. 

Breaking from the norm, we also deliver highly advanced psychological DE-ESCALATION techniques using modern science and proven tactics.

BEHAVIOR SCIENCE SKILLS 

The behavior science module introduces advanced skills, nonverbal analysis, deception detection and recognizing stress-response behavior. These science-based skills carry into the field allowing officers to interpret behavior that would have gone unnoticed. 
This course also introduces The Behavioral Table of Elements (BToE), the body language system designed for US Government operations.
The BToE is included electronically and in student handouts.

---

• Behavior profiling
• Stress behaviors
• Deception detection
• Tactical body language analysis

---

VIOLENT BEHAVIOR PREDICTION

84% of recorded attacks on officers have had pre-violent indicators that could have been spotted early by an officer trained in violent behavior recognition.

​This course covers the OODA loop (the officer's decision process), and introduces the TFCA cycle (the suspect's decision process) and how the TFCA cycle allows us to spot violent behavior, giving the officer more time to make decisions and save lives.

---

• Science-backed violent behavior signals
• Breakthrough training methods to spot violent behavior
• Video analysis of violent-action cases
• OODA loop and TFCA cycle

---

ENHANCED COMPLIANCE

This module of the course covers methods designed to enhance compliance, build community trust, and drastically improve the effectiveness of field interviews. ​

---

• Advanced in-field influence strategies
• Leveraging and increasing perceived authority
• Trust-building
• Science and evidence presentation
• Authority tactics and techniques
• Compliance enhancement for field interviews

---

WHY TACTICAL BEHAVIOR SCIENCE?

• Body language has been proven time and time again to be more than 2/3 of communication, and ​less than 1% of training time is invested in learning it. This is literally 2/3 of police interactions with the public, and we haven't provided officers with training to manage the largest lever in the interaction - nonverbal behavior. 
• The techniques and tactics aren't available anywhere else.
• Applied Behavior Research developed these groundbreaking methods to greatly exceed the training available today.
• The core skills to read behavior are critical to officers, not just another PowerPoint full of 'pointers'.

---

The current world in which our law enforcement professionals work in is a dynamic environment. With increasing threats, the ability to read and influence human behavior in each engagement is a critical skill that can directly save lives. The PEACE 4A course gives officers the ability to assess situations with greater clarity, improve community trust, and obtain compliance in very difficult situations. This type of training is not available in any academy or in-service curricula, so if you are a security, law enforcement or public safety professional, then you need to bring this training to your agency.
