Appl. Math., Praha 57, No. 5, 463-475 (2012).

The paper presents convergence properties for arrays of rowwise pairwise negatively quadrant dependent random variables. Particularly complete convergence and convergence in \(L_{p}\) are investigated. The results extend and improve corresponding results of T. C. Hu and R. L. Taylor [Int. J. Math. Math. Sci. 20, No. 2, 375–382 (1997; Zbl 0883.60024)].
