contents A subset of vertices is called a dissociation set if it induces a subgraph with vertex degree at most one. Recently, Yuan et al. established the upper bound of the maximum number of dissociation sets among all connected graphs of order n and characterized the corresponding extremal graphs.They also proposed a question regarding the second-largest number of dissociation sets among all connected graphs of order n and the corresponding extremal graphs. In this paper, we give a positive answer to this question.
