We present the latest COMPASS results on the proton spin structure function g[Formula: see text](x) at 200[Formula: see text]GeV. The data improve the statistical precision by a factor of [Formula: see text]2 at low x. A reevaluation of the Bjorken sum rule based on COMPASS proton and deuteron data confirms its validation to a 9% accuracy. Finally, results from a global NLO QCD fit of g1 world data are shown. The extracted spin singlet distribution leads to an integrated value of [Formula: see text] at Q[Formula: see text] (GeV/c)2. The large uncertainty is mainly driven by the unknown shape of the distribution.

We give an overview of present calculations involving the proton spin structure function. It is shown that a significant part of the discepancy between the data and the Ellis–Jaffe sum-rule may arise through the axial anomaly if the gluons within the proton are strongly polarized. While a quark model, such as the MIT bag, does not include the anomaly, and therefore cannot be expected to reproduce the spin structure function, it does give a rather good description of recent data which is anomaly free, such as the distribution of polarized, valence up-quarks in the proton.
