Spectral distribution methods are often applied to the calculation of nuclear level densities. If their distribution in spin is required in addition to the total number of levels at each energy, the spin-cutoff parameter and its energy dependence must be known. Recent calculations of the spin-cutoff parameters have shown qualitative agreement with data. Reasons for the remaining discrepancies are discussed, and proecdures for improving agreement between theory and experiment are suggested. 8 figures.
