Hi everyone, My name is Gil and I am Ph.D student at the Anthropology department at the University of New Mexico (I am an international student from Israel). I...
I saw that few students joined the group in the past few days, and you might be a bit shy to so I thought I will add a new topic about my interests in humor...
Hi, sorry, this is not related to humor in anyway, but my next study probably will be ;-) I'm looking for participants from all age groups to fill in my online...
Following Gil's lead, I thought I would post a bit about myself and my humor research. I am a sociology PhD student at the University of Iowa. I came to Iowa...
Hi Christie, I am very familiar of Ford's work and find them very interesting. It seems that many of us are interested in disparagement humor (though from...
Hi Gil, It certainly seems that way...kind of takes the fun out of studying humor! I recently found evidence of a positive social consequence of exposure to...
Hi Christie, sure< I will be happy to read your paper. you can either post it here if you don't mind others to see it or email it to me. Gil ... studying ... ...
Hi All, Me and Christine Gockel are trying to put together a symposium at the Society of Personality and Social Psychology which will be held next February at...
Hi Gil, That's a great idea! Unfortunately I'm trying to put together another conference for SPSP (on moral intuitions, probably not unrelated to put-down ...
At least someone will come and listen :) yes, there are many potential presenters. We will try to contact few of them soon, since the deadline for submission...
Hi Jesse, in my dissertation research, I examine the effects of put-down humor on cohesion in groups. So far, I conducted two experiments. Once I have finished...

Hi Lisa, good to see you here :) It's interesting to see all of us scattered everywhere and in so many different programs. I don't know much about leadership...
I agree with Gil's assessment of Rod's text-- I have found it invaluable as a researcher. However, you can count the number of figures/illustrations on one...
Yes, students complain about it but he did it purpusely. It suppose to be for upper level students or graduate students. Since it has already so much...
Hope you all are enjoying the long weekend. Seems as though most of you are further along in your research, so you've probably discovered this book already,...
I have seen this book. It's a good reference book and it summarize some of the topics, but the guy that wrote the book is not a humor researcher and not all...
Hello all, this is Jeff, a psy. undergraduate from the Chinese University of Hong Kong. I am recently working hard on my thesis, of which the topic is humor,...

Hi, jeff. . .do you know about the multiple bibliographies that are available via the International Society for Humor Research site? (http://www.hnu.edu/ishs/)...
Hi Humorologists, I'm wondering if anyone has (or knows where to find) a set of short sayings -- jokes, one-liners, aphorisms, anything -- that have been rated...
Hi Jesse, you can use one liners from stand up comedy, for example steven wright's jokes. they are considered classic and you can have few people rate them...
Yes. I recommend Steven Wright. We're using him in our study, as well as Mitch Hedberg, who has a similar one-liner thing going on. BTW, Steven Wright came...
Hi all, I thought you might be interested in reading a book review I wrote on Rod Martin's book. It's not a comprehensive review of the book but rather mainly...
