  We give a thorough analysis of the correlation between the muon anomalous
magnetic moment and the radiative lepton flavor violating (LFV) processes
within the minimal supersymmetric standard model. We find that in the case when
the slepton mass eigenstates are nearly degenerate, $\delta a_\mu$, coming from
SUSY contributions, hardly depends on the lepton flavor mixing and, thus, there
is no direct relation between $\delta a_\mu$ and the LFV processes. On the
contrary, if the first two generations' sleptons are much heavier than the 3rd
one, i.e., in the effective SUSY scenario, the two quantities are closely
related. In the latter scenario, the SUSY parameter space to account for the
experimental $\delta a_\mu$ is quite different from the case of no lepton
flavor mixing. Especially, the Higgsino mass parameter $\mu$ can be either
positive or negative.
