This paper deals with the problem of almost sure convergence rate for weighted sums of negatively associated random variables. A new convergence rate is obtained base on an exponential inequality, the result obtained extends and has a fast convergence rate compare with the existing result. As an application, we study the Priestley-Chao estimate of nonparametric regression estimate and the convergence rate is derived.
