The authors apply the so-called method of multiplier-enlargement for the modified Hermite-Fejér operator obtaining approximation results for unbounded continuous functions defined on the whole real line. The \((2n-1)\)-order Hermite-Fejér interpolation polynomial operator is defined by \[ F_n \bigl(f(t), x\bigr)= H_{2n-1}\bigl( f(t),x\bigr)= {1\over n^2}\sum^n_{k=1} (1-x_k^{(n)}) \left[{T_n(x) \over x-x_k^{(n)}} \right]^2 f(x_k^{(n)}), \] \(-1\leq x \leq 1\), where \(x_k^{(n)}=\cos {(2k-1)\pi \over 2n}(k=1,2, \dots,n)\) are the zeros of the \(n\)-th order Chebyshev polynomial \(T_n(x)=\cos n(\arccos x)\). The convergence theorem about the modified Hermite-Fejér operator is the following: Theorem. If for any given increasing function \(\Omega: \mathbb{R}\to \mathbb{R}\) we have \(\Omega(|x|)\to \infty(|x|\to\infty)\) and there exist two sequences \(\alpha_n\to\infty (n\to\infty)\) and \(\beta_n \searrow 0\) \((n \to \infty)\) such that (1) \(\alpha_n\beta_n\to 0(n\to\infty)\), (2) \(\alpha_n^2 \Omega (\alpha_n)/(n \beta^2_n)\to 0(n\to\infty)\), then for every \(f\in C(-\infty,\infty)\) we have \(\lim_{n\to\infty} F_n(f(\alpha_nt), \alpha_n^{-1}x)= f(x)\) almost uniformly on \(\mathbb{R}\).
