Following the seminal paper by Bourgain, Brezis, and Mironescu, we focus on the asymptotic behaviour of some nonlocal functionals that, for each u L² (RN), are defined as the double integrals of weighted, squared difference quotients of u. Given a family of weights \ _{ \}, (0, \, 1), we devise sufficient and necessary conditions on \ _{ \} for the associated nonlocal functionals to converge as 0 to a variant of the Dirichlet integral. Finally, some comparison between our result and the existing literature is provided.
