Psychology of Humor
Research Team 5
Supervised by Bernard Beins
Office: 115-E Williams

This team studies psychological aspects of humor. Our work consists of collecting humorous stories, jokes, anecdotes, and cartoons so that we can see how different people react to them. Students on the team complete library research to discover what other researchers have done, help plan the studies, and produce written reports of the results. In the past, students have presented their work at various psychology conferences.
