The Kondo lattice model including nearest-neighbor magnetic exchange interactions is studied here in a mean-field approximation describing both the Kondo state and the intersite magnetic correlations. In the case of antiferromagnetic correlations, our model yields a decrease of the Kondo temperature compared to the one-impurity value, giving, therefore, a ''revisited'' version of the Doniach diagram with a rather flat Kondo temperature in the nonmagnetic case, as observed in several cerium compounds. Our model shows also that short-range magnetic correlations can appear at a temperature clearly larger than the Kondo temperature, as observed in compounds such as CeCu 6 or CeRu 2 Si 2 . ͓S0163-1829͑97͒04642-0͔
