The concept of an abelian group is central to group theory. For that reason many generalizations have been considered and exploited. One, in particular, is the idea of an n-abelian group (6). If n is an integer and n > 1, then a group G is n-abelian if, and only if,(xy)n = xnyn for all elements x and y of G. Thus, a group is 2-abelian if, and only if, it is abelian, while non-abelian n-abelian groups do exist for every n > 2.Many results pertaining to the way in which groups can be constructed from abelian groups can be generalized to theorems on n-abelian groups (1; 2). Moreover, the case of n = p, a prime, is useful in the study of finite p-groups (3; 4; 5). Moreover, a recent result of Weichsel (9) gives a description of all p-abelian finite p-groups.
