Considerable progress has been made in the use of the nuclear models and methods to derive physically meaningful parameters for model calculations. In this sense, we analyze the influence of the collective modes of excitation of the target nucleus on the cross section calculations in some medium atomic-weight nuclei, where spectroscopic studies show evidence of anharmonic vibrations, nonaxial deformations and so on. Coupled channel calculations for low-energy neutron inelastic scattering to collective states in {sup 48}Ti, {sup 54}Cr and {sup 62}Ni isotopes are made using the Davydov-Chaban model (DCM). It is shown, that the consideration of the structural features of the target nucleus excitation in the cross section calculations guarantees the agreement with the experimental measurements.
