In this paper, by using the probability inequalities and moment inequalities for WOD random variables, we study the $L_p$ convergence and complete convergence for the partial sums respectively under the conditions of RCI$(\alpha)$, SRCI$(\alpha)$ and $R$-$h$-integrability. We also give an application to nonparametric regression models based on WOD errors by using the $L_p$ convergence that we obtained. Finally we carry out some simulations to verify the validity of our theoretical results.
