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 to the anxious and avoidant styles. The anxious attachment was negatively related to both benevolent humor and wit and positively with irony. The avoidant style was positively associated with nonsense and sarcasm, while no other relationship emerged. This research indicated that attachment orientations are associated with individual differences in the detailed differentiation of humor-related styles.

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 Incongruity Theory and the Release Theory are not altogether incompatible. We'll also see at least one example of an apparent attempt by modern translators to excise humor from a medieval text. Our considerations will open a window into what oral discussion and debate at medieval universities was actually like, and how we should understand the relationship between the texts we have now and the exchanges that actually occurred then.

Resumo: Esta pesquisa analisa as representações do gaucho nos quadrinhos de Inodoro Pereyra, personagem criada pelo humorista argentino Roberto Fontanarrosa na década de 70 do século XX. Nascido como uma paródia da literatura gauchesca, do radioteatro e do folclore argentino, a trajetória do renegau retoma a metáfora sarmientina civilização e barbárie, que atravessa não só a história deste país, mas se inscreve na tradição política de toda a América Latina. Neste sentido, através dos quadrinhos deste gaucho é possível rediscutir importantes questões que marcaram a história da República Argentina, tais como as oposições entre pampa e litoral, unitários e federais, nacionalismo e cosmopolitismo, e que compõem a imagem de uma nação dividida. Além disso, a epopéia vivida pela personagem permite que redimensionemos o tema "as duas Argentinas", tendo em vista que este quadrinho está transpassado por imagens relacionadas ao imaginário social desta nação
Abstract: This research analyzes the representations of the gaucho in the comics of Inodoro Pereyra, a character created by the Argentine comedian Roberto Fontanarrosa, in the 70s of the twentieth century. Born as a parody of Gauchesca literature, of radiotheater and of Argentine folklore, the renegau's trajectory retakes the sarmientina metaphor of civilization and barbarism, which crosses not only the History of this country, but also inscribes itself in all Latin America's political tradition. In this sense, through the comic of this gaucho, it is possible to rediscuss important issues that have marked the history of the Argentine Republic such as the oppositions between pampa and coast, unitary and federal, nationalism and cosmopolitanism, which composes the image of a divided nation. Moreover, the epopee experienced by the character allows us to resize the theme "two Argentinas". Considering that, this comic is transfixed by images related to the social imagination of this nation

Abstract:
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 correlation was found between patient age and humor program use. Independent t-tests (a = 0.05) were performed on the duration of stay for treatment and control populations, for the oncology and the osteology groups. No statistically significant differences were found in either population. Two independent t-tests (a = 0.05) were performed to analyze pain medication usage. The first examined the differences in the mean percent of p.r.n. pain medications used. Neither population showed statistically significant differences. The second t-tests examined coded scores for changes in pain medication orders. Again, no statistically significant differences were found in either population.

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 low or high humor conditions. I also hypothesized that participants who had a greater sense of humor would rate the therapist more positively. Results revealed a partial confirmation of the hypotheses. The greatest amount of humor used by the therapist resulted in decreased ratings of the therapist for a measure of appropriateness of humor and a measure of warmth and empathy. Also, the therapist who used the most humor was rated significantly less rigid and dull than the therapist who used no humor. Suggestions forfuture research in the area are given.

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.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract This chapter analyzes Puig’s novels from a double critical perspective. One is the notion of myth personnel (Charles Mauron’s psychocritique) together with Freud’s uncanny, Otto Rank’s double, Lacan’s linguistic unconscious—as represented by the autobiographical fictional layer. The other is the notion of “collective myths” (Claude Levi-Strauss’s bricolage, Susan Sontag’s kitsch and camp, Umberto Eco’s apocalyptic and integrated) that permeate the collective unconscious, present in popular culture and mass-media. Puig’s entire work is an illustration of his recurrent statement that the “contemporary novel starts with Freud”—for him, psychoanalysis was a tool not only to create his characters but also for self-analysis. He also knew, by personal experience, of the power and seduction of collective dreams expressed mostly by films but also by tango and bolero lyrics, soap operas and detective novels. This collective unconscious was tied with his socio-political investigation of what he called “Argentine mistake, a political mistake, a sexual mistake.” Based upon Puig’s predilection for popular culture some critics have judged his work as entertaining and trivial, though his real lineage is with Borges in his use of parody, humor, intertextuality, and generic transgression as well as his fondness for detective novel, the fantastic, and Hollywood movies.

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.

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.

Abstract:
Dajare – Japanese pun and its research potential The present paper introduces dajare as a Japanese form of puns, i.e. utterances with multiple meanings based on a wordplay. Dajare is chosen as a minimal text with a potential of humorous effect, thus a promising starting point for a research of humor and laughter from perspec tives of cultural anthropology and cognitive linguistics. 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, zappai etc. In modern Japan, dajare is often regarded rather nega tively as “old men’s joke” (oyaji gyagu), mainly due to its separation from the tradition of poetic wit. Nevertheless, several areas of the use of dajare are presented and some principles of its most common form are discussed from the linguistic point of view. The paper ends with two main proposals for further research into Japanese puns: Research in the communicative, textual and discourse functions of dajare (humorous effect as the main goal is questioned) and in the relation of puns and linguistic creativity from the perspective of construction grammar.
