We have defined a mini-injective module and given some structures of self mini-injective rings and certain relationships between such rings and QF-rings in [8] and [9].
In this short note we shall study the modules dual to mini-injective modules, which we call maxi-quasiprojective modules. We shall give a characterization and some structures, in terms of the above modules, of those rings whose every injective modules has the lifting property of direct decompositions modulo the Jacobian radical (see [5], [6] and [7]). Furthermore, we shall show that the above rings are closely related to QF-rings (see [8] and [9]).
