Let χ be a Dirichlet character modulo q, let L(s, χ) be the attached Dirichlet L-function, and let L^′(s, χ) denotes its derivative with respect to the complex variable s. The main purpose of this paper is to give an asymptotic formula for the 2k-th power mean value of |L^′/L(1, χ)| when χ ranges a primitive Dirichlet character modulo q for q prime. We derive some consequences, in particular a bound for the number of χ such that |L^′/L(1, χ)| is large.
