"This important new book provides a comprehensive analysis of humor from a social-psychological
perspective, addressing questions about the use of humor and its effects in daily
life. It examines the social psychology of humor on micro level phenomena, such as
attitudes, persuasion, and social perception, as well as exploring its use and effect
on macro level phenomena such as conformity, group processes, cohesion and intergroup
relations. Humor is inherently a social experience, shared among people, essential
to nearly every type of interpersonal relationship. In this accessible volume, Strick
and Ford review current research and new theoretical advancements to identify pressing
open questions and propose new directions for future research in the social psychology
of humor. The book explores fascinating topics such as humor in advertising, political
satire, and the importance of a sense of humor in maintaining romantic relationships.
It also examines how racist or sexist humor can affect personal and intergroup relations,
and discusses how to confront inappropriate jokes. Offering new, precise and operational
conceptions of humor in social processes, this book will be essential reading for
students and academics in social psychology, and media and communication studies"
