Abstract: We investigate the existence of positive solutions to the nonlinear second-order three-point integral boundary value problem label{eq-1} {u^{prime prime}}(t)+a(t)f(u(t))=0, 0<t<T, u(0)={�eta}u(eta), u(T)={alpha}int_{0}^{eta}u(s)ds, where $0<eta<T$, $0<alpha<frac2T{eta}^2$, $$ are given constants. We show the existence of at least one positive solution if $f$ is either superlinear or sublinear by applying Krasnoselskii's fixed point theorem in cones.
