Abstract Let F and G be the respective distributions of nonnegative random variables X and Y satisfying the convex ordering. We investigate the class of functions h for which the equality E[h(X)] = E[h(Y)] guarantees F = G. It leads to extensions of some existing results and at the same time offers a somewhat simpler proof.
