Abstract

In this paper we prove the almost sure convergence of partial sums of identically distributed and negatively associated random variables with infinite expectations. Some results in Kruglov[Kruglov, V., 2008 Statist. Probab. Lett. 78(7) 890-895] are considered in the case of negatively associated random variables.
