Abstract. In this paper, we present recurrence relations for moments of lower generalized order statistics within a general form of doubly truncated distributions. Characterizations for the general form of doubly truncated distributions are studied. This the general form of distributions includes distributions such as doubly truncated inverted Weibull, inverted Gompertz, generalized logistic, Burr type X, Burr type XII, logistic, inverted Pareto, inverted compound Weibull, Gumbel and compound Gompertz, among others. Doubly truncated inverted Weibull, log-inverse generalized Weibull and inverted Pareto distribution are given as applications to illustrate the results.
