RESUMO
Objective To explore the relationship between humor style and attribution style.Methods A total of 193 college students were studied by means of cluster random sampling with the Students Humor Style Questionnaire and the Multidimensional Multiattributional Causality Scale.Results (1) Self-enhancing humor had positive correlation with internal control,controllability and stability(r =0.293,0.308,0.172; P＜ 0.01).Affiliative humor had no positive correlation with attribution style.Aggressive humor and self-defeating humor had positive correlation with internal control (r =0.146,0.167 ; P ＜ 0.01),external control (r =0.402,0.339 ; P ＜0.01),stability(r=0.286,0.306 ; P＜0.01) and instability(r =0.296,0.227; P ＜ 0.01).(2) Self-enhancing humor could predict internal control and controllability significantly;and aggressive humor and self-defeating humor has significantly positive prediction to stability,instability,internal control and external control.Conclusion Humor style has significant correlation with attribution style.Humor style can predict attribution style in some degree.
