I discuss the Lagrangian procedure for the treatment of higher-order fractional
field equations in (0+1) dimensions based on the fractional action-like
variational problems with higher-order derivatives. We explore the case in which
the derivatives appear only in the invariant d'Alembertian operator. Some
interesting consequences are revealed.
