In this work, local exchange potentials corresponding to the Hartree-Fock (HF) electron density have been obtained using the Zhao-Morrison-Parr method for a number of closed-shell confined atoms and ions. The exchange potentials obtained and the resulting density were compared with those given by the Becke-Johnson (BJ) model potential. It is demonstrated that introducing a scaling factor to the BJ potential allows improving the quality of the resulting density. The optimum scaling factor increases with decreasing confinement radius. The performance of Karasiev and Ludeña's SCα-LDA method as well as of the Becke-88 exchange potential for reproducing the HF electron densities in confined atoms has been also examined ​
