Abstract
One hundred and one small and rural law enforcement officers from Kentucky, Washington and Texas were surveyed and interviewed regarding their perceptions of a mobile use-of-force simulation training system. PRiSim. Specifically, attitudes toward comfort level with interactivity, value of the mobility of the system and overall usefulness of the simulator system are focused upon. Overwhelmingly, officers felt the PRiSim system was an effective law enforcement training tool and considered the mobility a valuable aspect in receiving use-of-force training.
