In this paper, the notions of n-fold positive implicative prefilter and n-fold implicative prefilter in EQ-algebras are introduced and several properties, characterizations and equivalent conditions are provided. It is proved that the quotient EQ-algebra induced by an n-fold positive implicative prefilter is n-idempotent. Also, it is proved that in an n-idempotent EQ-algebra, any filter is an n-fold positive implicative filter. In the sequel, we investigate the relationships between these two types of prefilters. Finally, some characterizations of n-fold implicative prefilters in bounded EQ-algebras are given.
