The radiative decays of rho,K*, omega and phi are studied in a one-parameter vector dominance model by introducing corrections for the off-shell vector meson-photon coupling constants. It is found that off-shell values rho and omega are suppressed by 1/1.5 while off-shell phi is suppressed by 1/1.9 compared with their on-shell values. In addition, we have also considered P ..-->.. ..gamma.. ..gamma.. decays and sigma/sub tot/ (VP), and found generally good agreement with the available data.
