Abstract:
In this study, the relationship between individuals’ insecure attachment styles and eight comic styles was explored. A sample of 636 Italian adults (206 males, 428 females, 2 non-binary), aged 18 to 81 years (M = 41.44; DS = 13.44) completed an online survey to investigate the relationship between insecure attachment styles, namely anxious and avoidant, and the eight comic styles, clustered into lighter style (fun, benevolent humor, wit, nonsense) and darker style (irony, satire, sarcasm, cynicism). The findings of this research indicated the lighter and darker styles were differently related

Abstract:
Abstract Scholastic philosophers can be quite funny. What's more, they have good reason to be: Aristotle himself lists ready wit (eutrapelia) among the virtues, as a mean between excessive humor and its defect. Here, I assess Scholastic discussions of humor in theory, before turning to examples of it in practice. The last and finest of these is a joke, hitherto unacknowledged, which Aquinas makes in his famous Five Ways. Along the way, we'll see (i) that the history of philosophy is not so hostile to humor as is commonly supposed; and (ii) that the competing theories of humor like the Incongru

The purpose of this study was to determine if using a humor program affected hospital oncology and osteology patients' recuperation times or use of pain medications. A quasi-experimental, retrospective study was designed. Thirty pairs of patients were identified from existing records at a hospital that has a comprehensive humor program. One patient in each pair had used the humor program, the other had not. Chi-square analysis on the demographic variables of race, marital status, smoking status and sex showed no significant association between humor usage and all variables except sex. No corre

Abstract:
In the psychological literature little has been written about the use of humor in therapy. Especially lacking is empirical data regarding the topic. In the current study I investigated the relationship between a personality characteristic, sense of humor, and the amount of humor used by a therapist in a mock therapy session. A 2 x 3 factorial design was implemented with participant's sense of humor and the amount of humor used by the therapist being the independent variables. I hypothesized that a moderate amount of humor would result in more positive ratings of the therapist than either the l

The philosopher Martin Heidegger describes humour as a response to human 'thrownness' in the world. This thesis argues that there is a form of humour which can be usefully described as postmodern humour and that postmodern humour reflects the experience of being 'thrown' into postmodernity. Postmodern humour responds to and references the fears, fixations, frameworks and technologies which underpin our postmodern existence. It is further contended that South Park is an example of postmodern humour in the way that it exhibits a carnivalesque postmodern narrative impulse which attacks the met

Full text
Abstract:
The extant literature on liquid racism has focused primarily on the rhetorical impact of humor. In this Chapter, we shift the focus to the role of metaphor as a means of conceptualization. Drawing on ideas and tools from the fields of critical discourse studies, conceptual metaphor theory and multimodal communication, we discuss how metaphorical framing can correspondingly constitute a vehicle for liquid racism, by zooming in on Greek political cartoons on the refugee ‘crisis’ in the Mediterranean Sea. To wit, we argue that, in this setting, the use of visual metaphor to refer to migrants can give rise to ambivalent evaluative imports that allow for racist undertones to enter the picture.

Abstract:
Abstract This chapter emphasizes the development and changes in Samuel Johnson’s sense of humor over time, over the course of his entire career. Johnson’s sense of humorhas a history, and it evolved according to the different contexts and experiences of his life, from his early writing for the Gentleman’s Magazine and his early poem London to the substantial works of his middle years, including the Rambler, the Idler, the Dictionary, and his Shakespeare to his lively and bracing great prose work, the Lives of the Poets. During his early career in London, Johnson was drawn, like many writers of the 1730s first starting out, to the satiric spirit of the day, but by the late 1740s and early 1750s, he began to think about satire, comedy, humor, and laughter more carefully and embraced in his writing a more mirthful sense of humor. His later writing, and particularly the Lives of the Poets, show an enabling influence of his needling conversational wit. Like most people’s sense of humor, Johnson’s sense of humor was not static.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter unpacks the humorous contents of selected Facebook-based Akpos jokes which have received inadequate attention in the scholarship with respect to wit negotiation which mostly indexes the jokes. Six out of fifteen sampled jokes have been analysed with the theoretic aid of Istvan Kecskes' Socio-Cognitive Approach (SCA), aspects of the common ground theory, aspects of conversation analysis and elements of selected humour theories. The analysis shows three forms of wit negotiation: negotiation of mis-oriented twists, negotiation of dis-preference and negotiation of un-designed twists. In the respective cases, the talk initiating speakers have their logic flawed by recipient speakers, usually Akpos, and consequently get outsmarted; earlier sequentially dispreferred social choices are re-negotiated as preferred options in the light of new discursive realities; and the interactive designs or expectations of talk initiating participants receive undersigned or unexpected sequential responses in symmetrical or asymmetrical relationships. The paper argues that the joke characters' situationally adaptive orientation to apriori or emergent common ground and intention demonstrates the Akpos jokes' recontextualisation of particular Nigerian social and cultural experiences through the characters' socio-cognitive designs in the mediated encounters. It concludes that while these designs offer the relaxant effects jokes are naturally meant to yield, their negotiation mechanisms provide resources for the application of Kecskes' SCA in Facebook humour and produce sarcasm with a wing of moral lessons.

This chapter opens the first part of the book on humor studies (chapters 1-5). It addresses the persistent problem in humor studies of terminological definition. It explain why there has been a consensus on using the term “humor” as an umbrella term subsuming all forms of humor (joke, irony, ridicule, mockery, wit, whim, puns, etc.). It further establishes the fundamental distinction between humor, mirth, and laughter/smiling, which are respectively the stimulus, emotional response, and physical response. It further distinguishes verbal and linguistic humor and meta-humor. A section also outlines the history of the field of humor studies.

Consequently, there was a general assumption that illegal construction was mainly met in developing countries. This was proved inaccurate in recent years, wh

While the ability to make puns with the use of the Chi nese script in Japan is historically well documented in the form of gisho, the concept of dajare is traced to the realms of the poetic forms of haikai no renga,
