The scale breaking ..lambda.. parameters of the Euclidean and Hamiltonian formulations of the lattice regulated O(N) and SU(N) x SU(N) spin systems in 1 + 1 dimensions were computed in terms of the ..lambda../sub PV/ parameter of the Pauli-Villars regulated continuum models. Using lattice perturbation theory, the renormalized mass gap has been determined in terms of ..lambda../sub PV/ for each model. These results are compared to analogous calculations in SU(N) gauge theories.
