A DNS database for the channel flow at Reτ = 590 is used to investigate the validity of the hypotheses used to model the pressure term in the Reynolds stress transport equations by elliptic relaxation. It is shown that the correlation function involving the fluctuating velocity and the Laplacian of the pressure gradient, which is modeled by an exponential function, is actually not isotropic. It is not only elongated in the streamwise direction but also asymmetric in the direction normal to the wall. This feature is the main cause for the slight amplification of the redistribution between the Reynolds stress components in the log layer as predicted by the elliptic relaxation operator. The expected reduction in redistribution is predicted by a new formulation of the model, which can be derived by accounting for the asymmetry in the correlation function, without using any wall echo correction terms. The belief that this reduction is due to the wall echo effect is called into question through the present DNS analysis.
