Abstract
Let (R, *) be a 2-torsion free *-prime ring with involution *, and L not equal 0 be a *-Lie ideal of R. An additive mapping F: R -> R is called a generalized derivation on R if there exists a derivation d: R -> R such that F(xy) = F(x) y + xd(y) holds for all x, y is an element of R. In the present paper, we shall show that when L satisfies any of several identities involving F, then L is central.
