Consider a map of class ${C}^{3} $ with nonflat critical points and with all periodic points hyperbolic repelling. We show that the ‘backward contracting condition’ implies the summability condition. This result is the converse of Theorem 3 of Bruin et al. [‘Large derivatives, backward contraction and invariant densities for interval maps’, Invent. Math. 172 (2008), 509–533].
