This paper gives several monotonicity properties of all oscillatory solutions of equations with separable and nonseparable nonlinearities which are more general than the Emden- Fowler equations

*

Principally, if x(t) is an oscillatory solution, conditions are given such that; if a(t)↑ ∞ as t → ∞, then x(t) → 0; and, if a(t) ↓ 0 as t → ∞, then lim sup | x(t) | = ∞.
