    The existence of multiple positive solutions to the one-dimensional \(p\)-Laplacian \[ (( \Phi_{p} (u'))' + h(t) f(u) =0 \] subject to one of the following three pairs of nonlinear boundary conditions \[ u(0) -g_{1} (u'(0))=0, \quad u(1) +g_{2} (u'(1)) =0, \] \[ u(0) - g_{1} (u'(0)) =0, \quad u(1)=0, \] \[ u'(0) =0, \quad u(1) +g_{2} (u'(1)) =0, \] with \(\Phi_{p} (v) = |v|^{p-2} v\), \(p >1\), \(h(t)\) is a nonnegative measurable function on \((0,1)\), \(f(u) \) is a nonnegative continuous function on \([0, +\infty) \), and \(g_{1} (v) \) and \(g_{2} (v) \) are all continuous functions defined on \((- \infty, + \infty) \) , is studied. Results from papers of the reference are improved and generalized.
