The influence of spin-unsaturated subshells on the coupling between hadronic probes and the target nucleons is studied for the case of elastic scattering. Particular attention is focused on the case of pion scattering from nuclei where the sigma-arrow-rightxn term in the pion-nucleon t matrix gives rise to a surface correction term to the ..pi..-nucleus optical potential. A closed form expression for this term is given and its effects on a few cases of ..pi..-nucleus scattering are estimated. Similar estimates are made for proton-nucleus scattering at 800 MeV bombarding energy.
