In this article the major result characterizes preconvergence compactness in terms of the preconvergence closedness of second projections. Applying this result to a topological space yields similar characterizations for -closed, nearly compact, completely Hausdorff-closed, extremely disconnected Hausdorff-closed, Urysohn-closed, -closed and -closed spaces, among others. Moreover, it is established that the -convergence of Thompson (i.e. -convergence) is equivalent to topological convergence where the topology has as a subbase the set of all regular-closed elements of .
