For an infinite cardinal ℵ an associative ring R is quotient ℵ<-dimensional if the generalized Goldie dimension of all right quotient modules of RR are strictly less than ℵ. This latter quotient property of RR is characterized in terms of certain essential submodules of cyclic modules being generated by less than ℵ elements, and also in terms of weak injectivity and tightness properties of certain subdirect products of injective modules. The above is the higher cardinal analogue of the known theory in the finite ℵ = ℵ0 case.
