Chapter 8: Emerging Topics for Humor Research and Practice -- Index -- Glossary -- References.This book provides a comprehensive review of the state-of-the-art on the adaptive and maladaptive functions of humor. Humor is inescapable in our daily interactions - also at the work place. Affiliative, self-enhancing, self-deprecating and aggressive humor can all occur at work and have unique and sometimes ambiguous effects. The volume presents humor research on five important workplace topics: teams, leadership, negotiation, learning, and health. It combines and integrates research from a range of fields, including work and organizational psychology, social psychology, communication, linguistics and sociology. In highlighting research gaps and stating future research questions, the book provides a sufficient starting point for further research on humor in relation to the aforementioned topics. For practitioners, recommendations are provided specific to each area.SpringerBriefs in Psychology,2192-8363Psychology, IndustrialPersonnel managementPersonalitySocial psychologyManagementPositive psychologyIndustrial and Organizational Psychologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y20030Human Resource Managementhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/517000Personality and Social Psychologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y20050Cultural Managementhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22050Positive Psychologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y44000Psychology, Industrial.Personnel management.Personality.Social psychology.Management.Positive psychology.Industrial and Organizational Psychology.Human Resource Management.Personality and Social Psychology.Cultural Management.Positive Psychology.158.7Scheel Tabeaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut767471Gockel Christineauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910254792903321Humor at Work in Teams, Leadership, Negotiations, Learning and Health2034061UNINA
