Abstract
In 1984, C. M. Newman posed the problem of proving the invariance principle in distribution for associated random fields (i. e., fields satisfying the so-called FKG-inequalities)X={Xj, j∈Zd} when d≥3. The solution of this problem for wide-sense stationary associated random fields is obtained here under slightly more restrictive conditions than those used by C. M. Newman and A. L. Wright for the strictly stationary case where d=1 and d=2.
