The local density approximation ( LDA ) to exchange and correlation effects has well‐known limitations. The nonlocal weighted density approximation ( WDA ) corrects some of those defects. This is illustrated here by applications to free atoms and small atomic clusters. The WDA also induces a nonlocal kinetic energy functional that is tested for atoms. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
