520 |a Theory and research on humor as well as on religion, focused on related personality traits, cognitive structures, and social consequences, lead to the hypothesis that religiousness is negatively associated with humor. In this study, 72 individuals were tested in their propensity to spontaneously produce humor in response to hypothetical daily hassles. Religiousness and religious fundamentalism were found to be negatively correlated with humor creation in response to these hypothetical daily hassles, while quest religious orientation was positively correlated with humor creation in response to these same events. No relation was found between religion and reported sense of humor or reported use of humor as coping. The discussion focuses on methodological and theoretical considerations toward a comprehensive interpretation of results and possibilities for further research.
