Abstract

We discuss the finite temperature generalized Gaussian effective potential. We put out a very simple relation between the thermal corrections to the generalizedGaussian effective potential and those of the effective potential. We evaluate explicitly the second order thermal corrections in the case of the selfinteracting scalar field in one spatial dimension.
