    The paper deals with stationary sequences satisfying the uniform strong mixing condition with mixing coefficients \(\varphi (n)\) such that \(\varphi (1) <1\) (the author calls this \(\varphi _1\)-mixing). Let \({\mathcal N}_0\) denote the domain of the strong attraction of the normal law, that is the set of all distributions \(L(\xi)\) such that any stationary sequence \(\{\xi _n\}\) meeting \(\varphi _1\)-mixing and such that \(L(\xi _1)\in {\mathcal N}_0\) is attracted to the normal law. Let, further, \({\mathcal N}_1\) be the set of all distributions \(L(\xi)\) such that any stationary sequence \(\{\xi _n\}\) satisfying the \(\varphi _1\)-mixing condition and such that \(L(\xi _1)=L(\xi)\) obeys the central limit theorem. Clearly, \({\mathcal N}_1\subset {\mathcal N}_0\). The author gives conditions under which \(L(\xi)\) belongs to \({\mathcal N}_0\) or \({\mathcal N}_1\) and which are more general than those known before. His main result looks as follows: Let \(\hat{\xi}_1,\ldots,\hat{\xi}_n\) be a sequence of independent random variables such that \(\hat{\xi}_k\buildrel d \over =\xi_k, k=1,2,\ldots\), and \(c_n(p)=\{E|\max_{1\leq k\leq n}\hat{\xi_k}|^p\}^{1/p}\).
