The theory of particle diffusion in an electrostatic turbulent plasma is formulated by applying the direct-interaction approximation (DIA) to subensemble-averaged functions instead of conventional ensemble-averaged ones. This theory approximately incorporates the Lagrangian description into the DIA through decorrelation trajectories. The running diffusion coefficient is shown to be calculated by solving a nonlinear ordinary differential equation together with an equation for decorrelation trajectories and by averaging initial conditions at the starting point of trajectories.
