Abstract
Vector pseudoinvexity is characterized in the current literature by means of a suitable functional which depends on two variables. In this paper, vector pseudoinvexity is characterized by means of a functional which depends on one variable only. For this very reason, the new characterizing conditions are easier to be verified.
