Abstract
Based on the orientation of relativistic jets of BL Lac objects, the o bserved data must be corrected for the Doppler effect. For 21 radio-se lected BL Lac objects whose optical Doppler factors have been obtained (Xie et al 1991a, b, 1992), their corrected data based on our assumpt ion of Doppler factor show good relations, which means synchrotron emi ssion is their main emission mechanism, and our assumption of Doppler factor is reasonable.
