Sažetak
Statistically significant differences among police officers, members of intervention and special police force were found on following body sites taken for measuring skinfold thickness - upper arm (ANNAD), back (ANL), abdomen (ANT) and chest (ANPR) (table 1 and 2). Scientific data on morphological characteristics of police members collected from domestic and foreign authors enable designed, scientifically based planning and programming of various kinesiology operators, with the aim of improving training and situational efficiency level of police members. One of the basic scientific foundation for planning a process of specialized physical training (hereinafter specialized training) is to get quality feedback information on morphological characteristics (anthropometric characteristics) of tactical population, tactical employees, and in particular if possible, to compare results analysed by scientists and collected from various countries. To ensure a successful results and high situational efficiency level of tactical employees/population, in this context police officers, appropriate anthropometric characteristics are needed because they provide professional proceedings in most urgent situations and in all kinds of weather. Adequate or preferable anthropometric characteristics could be defined as psychological stabilizers and motivators of utmost level contributory to execution of combat specific duties in situations where deadly force is used.
