After the author has reviewed second-order theory for map-pattern analysis, he sets forth an approach for the study of interaction where spatial structure is implicitly built into various pattern models. The models are models of clustering when all members of the cluster are centered at one point. A density analysis is proposed where spatial autocorrelation may be discerned. An example using population distribution in East Anglia, 1971, is given along with comparisons to a central place model.
