		An additional galaxy property which influences star formation has been shown to be the density of the environment in which the galaxy lives.
		The studies which show reduced star formation in cluster galaxies tend to be more sensitive to widespread star formation over the whole disk, while those which find an increase in star formation of cluster galaxies tend to be more sensitive to central bursts of star formation.
		(1998) do not attempt to determine the distribution of the star formation in the galaxies of their survey, which could be key in understanding the type of star formation triggered in the field vs. that triggered in clusters.
