Abstract

33 older adults (mean age = 72.3 yr.) rated themselves and a deceased sibling on the Multidimensional Sense of Humor Scale. A significant mean difference between the two groups on the subscale of Humor appreciation suggested the possibility of a positive relationship between humor appreciation and longevity.

摘要

33名老年人（平均年龄 = 72.3岁）在多维幽默感量表上对自己和一位已故的兄弟姐妹进行了评分。在幽默欣赏子量表上，两组之间存在显著的平均差异，这表明幽默欣赏与长寿之间可能存在正相关关系。
