In this paper, the p-generalized modified error function is defined as the solution to a non-linear ordinary differential problem of second order with a Robin type condition at x=0. Existence and uniqueness of a non-negative C^\infty solution is proved by using a fixed point strategy. It is shown that the p-generalized modified error function converges to the p-modified error function defined as the solution to a similar problem with a Dirichlet condition at x=0. In both problems, for p=1, the generalized modified error function and the modified error function, studied recently in literature, are recovered. In addition, existence and uniqueness of solution to a problem with a Neumann condition is also analysed.
