and accessible overview of psychologists' research on humor.
Drawing on research from a variety of psychological perspectives,
from cognitive and biological to social and developmental, the book

and use of humor. Throughout the book, theories and paradigms of
humor are explored, with each chapter dedicated to a distinct field
of psychological research. Covering topics including humor
development in children and older adults, humor's effectiveness in
advertisements, cross-cultural psychology and humor's functions in
the workplace, the book addresses the challenges psychologists face
in defining and studying humor despite it being a universal and
often daily experience. Featuring a wealth of student-friendly
features, including learning objectives and classroom activities,
An Introduction to the Psychology of Humor is an essential read for
all students of humor.
