      In the paper under review, the author studies some properties of certain affine invariant measures of symmetry associated to a compact convex body \(\mathcal{L}\) in \(\mathbb{R}^n\) introduced in his earlier paper [Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 358, No. 6, 2425--2446 (2006; Zbl 1108.53032)]. As functions of the interior of \(\mathcal{L}\), these measures of symmetry are proved or disproved to be concave in some specific situations. Some applications for the DoCarmo-Wallach moduli space of spherical minimal immersions are obtained.
