Let USC ⋆ p (X) be the topological space of real upper semicontinuous bounded functions defined on X with the subspace topology of the product topology on X R.Φ ↑ ,Ψ ↑ are the sets of all upper sequentially dense, upper dense or pointwise dense subsets of USC ⋆ p (X), respectively. We prove several equivalent assertions to that that USC ⋆ p (X) satisfies the selection principles S 1 (Φ ↑ ,Ψ ↑ ), including a condition on the topological space X. We prove similar results for the topological space C ⋆ p (X) of continuous bounded functions. Similar results hold true for the selection principles S f in (Φ ↑ ,Ψ ↑ ).
