The average squared transverse energy of jets in deep-inelastic muon-nucleon scattering is measured as a function of the momentum transfer squared ([ital Q][sup 2]), in the range 3[lt][ital Q][sup 2][lt]25 GeV[sup 2]. Perturbative QCD predicts that the average squared parton transverse energy will depend upon the strong coupling constant ([alpha][sub [ital S]]). Identifying the transverse energy of the jets with those of the corresponding partons, [alpha][sub [ital S]] is found to vary with [ital Q][sup 2] as predicted by QCD.
