Study’s Punch Line: Humor at the Office is Serious Business

By Charles Q. Choi, Special to LiveScience

Kidding around at work is commonly thought of as perilous, as the hit sitcom “The Office” often explores to wincing extremes.

Now intense research finds light humor at work is a good thing.

In their study, “The Case for Developing New Research on Humor and Culture in Organizations: Toward a Higher Grade of Manure,” researchers analyzed theories on humor, emotion and mood from several hundred studies in the fields of psychology, sociology, anthropology, philosophy and communications.

“There’s an Ernest Hemingway quote we relied on for our title—’It always seemed to me that in those who make jokes in life the seeds are covered with better soil and with a higher grade of manure,’” said researcher Chris Robert, a psychologist at the University of Missouri at Columbia. “The double entendre there is that people who use humor may be, well, full of it, but there’s a positive side as well.”

The researchers make the case that humor is serious business.

“It’s not just clowning around and having fun. It has meaningful impact on cohesiveness in the workplace and communication quality among workers,” Robert said. “The ability to appreciate humor, the ability to laugh and make other people laugh actually has physiological effects on the body that cause people to become more bonded.”
