Abstract

Let {Xn,n$\geq$1} be a sequence of pairwise negative quadrant dependent(NQD) random variables and let {an,n$\geq$1} and {bn,n$\geq$1} be sequencesof constants such that an$\neq$0 and 0$\infty$. In this note, for pairwise NQD random varibles, a general weak law of alrge numbers of the form(∑│aj│Xj-$\upsilon$n)/bnlongrightarrow0) is established, where {νn,n$\geq$1} is a suitable sequence.
