Singular quadratic functionals of one dependent variable with nonseparated boundary conditions are investigated. Necessary and sufficient conditions for nonnegativity of these functionals are derived using the concept of {\it coupled point} and {\it singularity condition}. The paper also includes two comparison theorems for coupled points with respect to the various boundary conditions.
