Humor and Chinese Culture

0 - Default Title
Description
This book focuses on the studies of humour in Chinese societies from a psychological approach. While humour is considered an important aspect of life in the western culture for the past century, it seems to have no importance in the Chinese contexts until recent decades. This book addresses how humour relates to various demographic and dispositional factors such as gender, region, age, optimism, resilience, and subjective well-being. It also explores the impact of the accelerating pace of social changes in China and how these changes affect people's attitudes toward humor, and includes cross-cultural comparisons of humor studies.
