Spin-statistics connection; field theory; theory of quantized fields

A simple demonstration of the spin—statistics connection for general causal fields is obtained by using the parity operation to exchange spatial coordinates in the scalar product of a locally commuting field operator, evaluated at position x, with the same field operator evaluated at − x, at equal times.
