We study the monotonicity with respect to a parameter of zeros of orthogonal polynomials. Our method uses the tridiagonal (Jacobi) matrices arising from the three-term recurrence relation for the polynomials. We obtain new results on monotonicity of zeros of associated Laguerre, Al-Salam-Carlitz, Meixner and Pollaczek polynomials. We also derive inequalities for the zeros of the Al-Salam-Carlitz and Meixner polynomials.
