SUMMARY. This paper studies some consequences of conditions like the uniform integrability and Cesàro uniform integrability (introduced by Chandra (1989)) in the context of strong laws of large numbers (SLLNs). Extending certain arguments of Etemadi (1981), Csörgo, Tandori and Totik (1983), we relax the condition of ‘identical distribution and/or independence’ in Etemadi’s extension of Kolmogorov’s SLLN and in the classical SLLN’s of Markov and Cantelli. We also extend the recent SLLN of Landers and Rogge (1986) and a result of Calderon (1983) related to the classical SLLN of Marcinkiewicz and Zygmund.
