Let (Ω,Σ,μ)(\Omega,\Sigma,\mu ) be a measure space with at least two disjoint sets of finite and positive measure, and S+=S+(Ω,Σ,μ)S_{+}=S_{+}(\Omega,\Sigma,\mu ) denote the set of all μ\mu-integrable simple functions x:ΩR+\mathbf{x}:\Omega \rightarrow \mathbb{R}_{+} having support Ω(x)\Omega \left( \mathbf{x}\right) of positive measure. Then, for an arbitrary bijection φ:(0,)(0,)\varphi:\left(0,\infty \right) \rightarrow \left( 0,\infty \right), the functional Pφ:S+R+\mathbf{P}_{\varphi }:S_{+}\rightarrow \mathbb{R}_{+} given by Pφ(x):=φ1(Ω(x)φxdμ)\mathbf{P}_{\varphi }\left( \mathbf{x}\right):=\varphi ^{-1}\big( \int_{\Omega (\mathbf{x})}\varphi \circ xd\mu \big) is well defined. The results presented support the conjecture that subadditivity of Pφ\mathbf{P}_{\varphi } implies the convexity of φ\varphi. The case of superadditivity of Pφ\mathbf{P}_{\varphi} is also discussed.
