The k-measure of an integer partition was recently introduced by Andrews, Bhattacharjee and Dastidar. In this paper, we establish trivariate generating function identities counting both the length and the k-measure for partitions and distinct partitions, respectively. The 2-measure case for partitions extends a result of Andrews, Bhattacharjee and Dastidar.
