The Bernstein-type inequality for acceptable random variables generalizes and improves the corresponding results presented by Yang for NA random variables and Wang et al. for NOD random variables. Using the exponential inequalities we further study the complete convergence for acceptable random variables. MSC 2000 60E15 60F15. Keywords acceptable random variables exponential inequality complete convergence 1 Introduction Let Xn n 1 be a sequence of random variables defined on a fixed probability space En I Xi EXi plays an important role in various proofs of limit theorems. In particular it provides a measure of convergence rate for the strong law of large numbers. There exist several versions available in the literature for independent random variables with assumptions of uniform boundedness or some quite relaxed control on their moments. If the independent case is classical in the literature the treatment of dependent variables is more recent. First we will recall the definitions of some dependence structure. Definition .
