The aim of the paper is to elucidate the problem of the regular changes in the properties of f ‐elements represented by the double‐double effect. It is pointed out that because of the half‐filled shell and double‐double effects the f ‐element properties cannot be plotted as a linear function of the L ‐quantum number, as suggested by Sinha [1][2].
