Abstract

This study investigated the relationship among socio-demographic variables and humor styles on university students’ subjective well-being (SWB). Participants were 376 university students attending different faculties at Çukurova University. Positive and Negative Affect, Satisfaction with Life, Humor Styles Questionnaires, and Socio-Demographic Information Questionnaire were used to collect data. To analyze the data, t-test, correlation, and stepwise regression analyses were employed. Aggregate SWB, Aggressive and self-defeating humor of male students were found to be significantly higher than those of female students. However, negative affect female students were significantly higher than those of male students. No significant difference between male and female students with respect to life satisfaction, positive affect, affiliative and self-enhancing humor was detected. Results of regression analyses indicated that self-enhancing humor, aggressive humor, romantic relationship, gender and economic status predict of aggregate SWB.

Özet

Bu araştırmanın temel amacı, üniversite öğrencilerinin sosyodemografik özellikleri ile mizah tarzları ve öznel iyi oluşları arasındaki ilişkinin incelenmesidir. Araştırmaya Çukurova Üniversitesi’nin değişik fakültelerinden 376 öğrenci katılmıştır. Veriler, Olumlu ve Olumsuz Duygular, Yaşam Doyumu, Mizah Tarzları Ölçekleri ve Sosyodemografik Bilgi Formu ile elde edilmiştir. Analizlerde t-testi, korelasyon ve adımlı regresyon kullanılmıştır. Toplam öznel iyi oluş, saldırgan ve kendini yıkıcı mizah tarzlarında erkek öğrencilerin puanları, kızlardan anlamlı bir şekilde yüksek çıkmıştır. Olumsuz duygularda, kız öğrencilerin puanları erkek öğrencilerden anlamlı bir şekilde yüksek bulunmuştur. Olumlu duygular, yaşam doyumu, katılımcı mizah ve kendini geliştirici mizah değişkenleri açısından ise kız ve erkek öğrenciler arasında anlamlı bir fark bulunmamıştır. Regresyon analizi sonucunda, kendini geliştirici mizah, saldırgan mizah, romantik ilişki, cinsiyet ve sosyoekonomik statünün toplam öznel iyi oluşu yordamada önemli olduğu anlaşılmıştır.
