Purpose: This study examines the relationships among perceived stress, humor style, responding humor and depression among college students and the mediating effect of humor between perceived stress and depression. Method: During the period May 6-16, 2013, a convenience sample of 200 subjects was obtained from college K in city G. Data analysis was performed by Pearson's correlation coefficients and regression analysis. Results: The average BDI score was 7.7. There were 40 (20.0%), 16 (8.0%), 8 (4.0%), and 11 (9.0%) students with mild, moderate, and severe depression, respectively. The group with depressive symptoms constituted 3.5% of students. There was a significant positive correlation between negative stress perception and depression. Conversely, there was a significant negative correlation between adaptive humor style and negative stress perception. Ultimately, there were significant negative correlations between positive stress perception, adaptive humor style, maladaptive humor style, responding humor and depression. To test the mediating effect of adaptive humor style in the relationship between negative stress perception and depression, a Sobel test was performed and Z-score of 1.7736 (p=.076) obtained. Conclusion: Though the mediating effect of an adaptive humor style on the relationship between perceived stress and depression was not significant, considering the negative correlation with depression, strategies to increase an adaptive humor style and responding humor is recommended to prevent depression in college students.

전통적으로 유머는 정신건강의 지표로 여겨졌으나 유머양식에 따라 긍정적 또는 부정적 기능을 한다는 연구들이 보고되고 있어 유머의 양식과 역할에 대한 연구의 필요성이 크다. 본 연구에서는 유머의 역할 중에서도 정신병리로 인한 정신적 웰빙 저하에 대한 완충효과에 주목했고 정신건강의학과 환자들에게 흔한 증상인 우울과 불안이 삶의 만족도를 낮추는 데 어떤 양식의 유머가 완충효과를 가지는지 검증하고자 했다. 이를 위해 101명 환자들의 유머양식, 삶의 만족도, 우울, 불안 자료를 상관분석한 뒤 위계적 회귀분석을 통해 유머양식의 조절효과를 분석했다. 그 결과, 자기고양적 유머가 우울과 불안 모두에서 삶의 만족도에 유의한 조절효과를 가졌고 친화적 유머는 우울과만 유의한 상호작용을 보였다. 따라서 정신건강의학과 환자들에게 긍정적 유머가 우울과 불안 증상으로 인한 정신적 웰빙 저하에 보호요인으로 작용할 수 있으며 특히 자신을 고양시키는 유머 사용이 삶의 만족도를 높이는데 효과적임이 시사되었다. 나아가 본 연구는 비록 정신병리를 겪고 있는 정신건강의학과 환자라 할지라도 긍정적 유머를 사용함으로써 통합적이고 융합적인 의미에서의 적응 가능성을 생각해 볼 수 있게 한다.

The purpose of this study was to identify the effect of the humor intervention program, administred to the hemodialysis patient as an adaptive coping mechanism. The research design was non-equivalent control group non-synchronized design. The study method had been done by investigating the experimental group and control group through the questionnaire on 36 patients who had been out patient hemodialysis room at B hospital in Pusan from August 18 to September 15, 1998. The humor intervention program consisted of 1 TV comedy, 1 home video and 1 comedy film. The humor intervention program was provided to the experimental group for 20-30 minute 3 times every other day at hemodialysis room. Dependent variables were measured by Spielberger's State Anxiety Inventory, Zung's Self Rating Depression Scale, Lefcourt & s Humor Coping Scale. The analysis of the collected data had been done for the hemogeneity test in which general characteristics of the experimental group and the control group had been tested by $X^2$-test and the hemogeneity test had been tested by t-test before using the humor intervention program which is for anxiety, depression and coping of humor. To test the hypothesis the t-test had been given for the difference of anxiety, depression and coping of humor between the two groups. The result were summarized as follows : 1. Anxiety score in the experimental group and control group was not significant difference. 2. Depression score in the experimental group and control group was not significant difference. 3. Coping of humor score in the experimental group and control group was not significant difference. In conclusion, even though humor intervention program did not have any efficient effect on hemodialysis patients in reacting to anxiety, depression and coping humor, it caused very positive reactions from patients, and it also reducted anxiety of patients among the experimental group a little bit. If this program could be sufficiently applied ac cording to the character of every patients with a little bit different appliences such as selection of humor intervention program, frequency and period, it will be used as an efficient the humor intervention program.

제품판매를 촉진하고 기업이윤의 극대화를 모색하는 기업논리로만 좋은 기업이미지를 형성하는 것은 불가능하다. 좋은 기업이미지 형성을 위하여 형성하는 것은 불가능하다. 좋은 기업이미지 형성을 위하여 기업활동을 통하여 효과적인 마케팅 이미지를 형성해야 하고 올바른 사회적 행동을 통하여 바람직한 사회적 이미지를 형성해야 하며, 문화적예술에 대한 투자, 보건, 교육, 사회적 복지프로그램등에 지원활동으로 사회적 신뢰를 획득해야 한다. 기업은 의도한 바대로의 기업이 미지를 대중들이 가질 수 있게 노력하지만 대중은 여러 정보들을 토대로 주관적으로 기업이미지를 지니게 된다. 기업이미지 형성 자체가 대중의 이성적이기 보다는 감성적인 주관에 의한 것이므로 감성적 접근과 감정적 설듯이 더욱 효과적인 요소가 된다. 유머효과는 기존의 연구를 통해 주의집중, 기억, 설득의 매우 강력한 수단이 된다는 것은 입증된 바 있다. 현대의 가장 인기잇는 광고의 대부분이 유머광고이고, 설문을 통하여 20대 대학생의 절대다수가 유머광고를 선호하고 있고 좋은 기업이미지를 위하여 유머러스한 제품광고를 통한 기업이미지 제고효과, 기업이미지 광고에 유머효과의 사용 그리고 기타 커뮤니케이션 활동에 유머효과를 사용하는 것에 대다수가 긍정적인 의견을 가지고 있다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 좋은 기업이미지 형성을 위해 유머효과는 친근함을 유도해 내고, 광고의 역기능적인 면을 최소화하고 정신적 즐거움을 주면서 설득효과를 가진다. 유머효과는 기업실체를 반영한 좋은 기업이미지 형성에 효과적일 뿐만 아니라 광고 커뮤니케이션의 아이디어 개발 근처로 활용할 수 잇다. 유머를 웃음을 유발하는 단순한 수단이라기 보다 인간에 대한 깊은 관조와 이해를 바탕으로한 휴머니즘의 또다른 표현이라고 본다면 바람직한 기업이미지와 연관한 연구는 의미가 있다고 할 수 있다.

Purpose: This study was done to identify the effects and relationships of humor, job satisfaction, job stress and intent to turnover for nurses and suggest a theoretical structural path diagram among the variables. Methods: Data were collected at 6 hospitals located in Seoul, and Gyeonggi Province, from June to September, 2010. Participants were 275 nurses. Data were analyzed using Amos 19.0 for Structural Equation Modeling. Results: Humor had significant effects on job satisfaction (${\beta}$=.15, t=2.29, p=.022) and indirect effects on the intent to turnover in this model ($X^2$=44.18, df=23, RMSEA=0.05, TLI=0.97). But humor did not affect job stress unlike results of previous studies (t=-.02, p=.771). Conclusion: Humor may not affect job stress under the very stressful conditions of the health care environment. The model showed the effect of humor contributed to increases in job satisfaction but did not decrease job stress. Higher levels of job satisfaction could decrease the intent to turnover. Consequently, humor would be helpful in increasing job satisfaction to diminish nurse turnover. Further studies are suggested to investigate causal relationships among humor, burnout, and other emotional and organizational variables.

Objective: The purpose of the present study was to examine the moderating role of childcare teachers' sense of humor in the relationship between their job stress and happiness Methods: Participants were 294 childcare teachers working at 83 childcare centers located in Busan and Gyeongnam. Teachers completed a rating scale in order to examine their demographic variables, job stress, sense of humor, and happiness. The collected data were analyzed using product-moment correlation and hierarchical multiple regression. Results: Childcare teachers' job stress was negatively correlated with their happiness. And childcare teachers' sense of humor had a positive relationship with their happiness. Hierarchical regression analysis indicated that the interaction of childcare teachers' job stress and sense of humor predicted their happiness. Childcare teachers' job stress was significantly associated with their happiness among those who demonstrated the lowest level of sense of humor. Childcare teachers' job stress had no relationship with their happiness, especially for those with the highest level of sense of humor Conclusion/Implications: We suggested that having a sense of humor might be valuable for childcare teachers in order to buffer the link between their job stress and happiness.
