Abstract This study explored how multifaceted facets of humor relate to sex differences and compassion for oneself, others, and the environment (Ntotal = 697; 57.5% female). We utilized the Dispositional Positive Emotions ‘amusement’ subscale (DPES-H), the Humor Styles Questionnaire Self-Enhancing Dimension (HSQ-SE), and the COPE Inventory to assess ‘coping humor’ (COPE-CH) and found that males report significantly higher scores of these humor constructs when compared to females. Considering previous research indicating that humor may be used to enhance oneself and relationships with others, we compared all three humor measures in males and females with reports of self-compassion, other-oriented compassion, and altruistic environmental concern. Interestingly, we found that all three humor scales are significantly related to the multi-faceted measure of self-compassion, the DPES ‘compassion’ subscale (DPES-C), and the environmental concern scale, but specific significant correlations vary according to sex. Altogether, this study explores sex differences in humor experiences and illustrates that women’s experiences with coping humor, DPES humor, and self-enhancing humor are significantly correlated with reports of compassion for oneself and others while men’s experiences with coping humor, DPES humor, and self-enhancing humor are significantly correlated with altruistic environmental concern. Potential basis for these correlations and implications for future research in light of these sex differences and similarities will be discussed.

幽默体验的性别差异与对自己和他人的同情的关系

摘要 本研究探讨了幽默的多方面如何与性别差异以及对自己、他人和环境的同情心相关(Ntotal = 697;57.5% 女性)。我们利用性格积极情绪“娱乐”分量表 (DPES-H)、幽默风格问卷自我增强维度 (HSQ-SE) 和 COPE 量表来评估“应对幽默”(COPE-CH) 并发现男性报告与女性相比,这些幽默结构的得分明显更高。考虑到之前的研究表明幽默可用于增强自己和与他人的关系,我们将男性和女性的所有三种幽默措施与自我同情、他人导向的同情和利他环境关注的报告进行了比较。有趣的是,我们发现所有三个幽默量表都与自我同情的多方面测量、DPES“同情”分量表 (DPES-C) 和环境关注量表显着相关,但具体的显着相关性因性别而异。总而言之,这项研究探讨了幽默体验中的性别差异,并说明女性在应对幽默、DPES 幽默和自我提升幽默方面的经历与对自己和他人的同情心报告显着相关,而男性在应对幽默、DPES 幽默和自我幽默方面的经历与报告显着相关。 - 增强幽默感与利他的环境关注显着相关。将讨论这些相关性的潜在基础以及鉴于这些性别差异和相似性对未来研究的影响。和环境关注量表,但具体的显着相关性因性别而异。总而言之,这项研究探讨了幽默体验中的性别差异,并说明女性在应对幽默、DPES 幽默和自我提升幽默方面的经历与对自己和他人的同情心报告显着相关,而男性在应对幽默、DPES 幽默和自我幽默方面的经历与报告显着相关。 - 增强幽默感与利他的环境关注显着相关。鉴于这些性别差异和相似性,将讨论这些相关性的潜在基础和对未来研究的影响。和环境关注量表,但具体的显着相关性因性别而异。总而言之,这项研究探讨了幽默体验中的性别差异,并说明女性在应对幽默、DPES 幽默和自我提升幽默方面的经历与对自己和他人的同情心报告显着相关,而男性在应对幽默、DPES 幽默和自我幽默方面的经历与报告显着相关。 - 增强幽默感与利他的环境关注显着相关。鉴于这些性别差异和相似性,将讨论这些相关性的潜在基础和对未来研究的影响。DPES 幽默和自我提升幽默与对自己和他人的同情心报告显着相关,而男性应对幽默、DPES 幽默和自我提升幽默的经历与利他环境关注显着相关。鉴于这些性别差异和相似性,将讨论这些相关性的潜在基础和对未来研究的影响。DPES 幽默和自我提升幽默与对自己和他人的同情心报告显着相关,而男性应对幽默、DPES 幽默和自我提升幽默的经历与利他环境关注显着相关。鉴于这些性别差异和相似性,将讨论这些相关性的潜在基础和对未来研究的影响。
