This paper presents a quantitative analysis of the differences between the various definitions of spatially averaged power densities (<inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$sIPD_{s}$ </tex-math></inline-formula>) for localized exposure to electromagnetic near-fields at frequencies from 6 to 100 GHz. The spatially averaged modulus of the complex Poynting vector (<inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$sIPD_{mod}$ </tex-math></inline-formula>) and spatially averaged norm of the real part of the complex Poynting vector (<inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$sIPD_{norm}$ </tex-math></inline-formula>) were compared using numerical approaches, where their relationships with the spatially averaged absorbed power density (<italic>sAPD</italic>) and the local peak temperature elevation on skin tissue were analyzed. Our results demonstrated that outside the typical boundary of the reactive near-field, i.e., <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$> \lambda $ </tex-math></inline-formula>/(<inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$2\pi$ </tex-math></inline-formula>), which is used as a rough guide of the applicable condition for reference levels in the RF safety guidelines, but at most 10 mm from the radiation source, the maximum difference between <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$sIPD_{norm}$ </tex-math></inline-formula> and <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$sIPD_{mod}$ </tex-math></inline-formula> is smaller than 0.7 dB from 6 to 100 GHz.
