The author studies the laws of large numbers for weighted sums of negatively superadditive-dependent random variables. The obtained results in this paper extend and improve the corresponding theorems of Yang et al. [Commun. Stat. Theor. M., 48 (2019), 3044-3054]. Moreover, the author obtains a new theorem of mean convergence for weighted sums of negatively superadditive-dependent random variables, which was not considered in Yang et al. (2019).
