Abstract
Humor surrounds us in everyday life, and with the right mindset, we can learn to recognize and embrace it as a powerful tool for improving mental, social, and physical well-being. By understanding the three main theories of humor—incongruity, superiority, and belief—students will better appreciate how different types of humor function. By analyzing four commonly found types of humor– irony, sarcasm, satire, and wordplay, students will be able to recognize and implement humor into their daily life. They will appreciate how humor contributes to health and human connection, and learn how to incorporate humor into their own lives for a more positive outlook.
