Resumen
(ES)Investigaciones anteriores han atribuido una connotación fundamentalmente negativa al denominado
“humor autodirigido”, dejando de lado su potencial núcleo positivo. No obstante, el reciente
desarrollo de la medida la “Dual Self-Directed Humor Scale” (DSDHS; Tsukawaki y Imura, 2020)
permite captar también su carácter adaptativo, evaluando las diferencias individuales en dos
dimensiones: humor pernicioso y benigno. En este trabajo (N = 276) se analizan las posibles
asociaciones diferenciales de dichas dimensiones con varios indicadores de bienestar (satisfacción
con la vida, afecto positivo y negativo, autoestima y soledad). Los análisis de regresión revelaron un
patrón diferencial de relaciones para cada dimensión de humor. En general, un mayor uso de humor
benigno fue indicativo de mayores niveles de bienestar, mientras que un uso más frecuente de humor
pernicioso reflejó niveles más pobres de bienestar. Estos resultados sirven para ampliar la
información disponible acerca de las diferencias existentes entre estas dos dimensiones de humor
autodirigido.
(EN)Previous research has attributed a fundamentally negative connotation to the "self-directed humor", leaving aside its potential positive core. However, the recent development of the "Dual Self-Directed Humor Scale" (DSDHS; Tsukawaki and Imura, 2020) allows capturing its adaptive character, evaluating individual differences in two dimensions: deleterious and benign humor. In this study (N = 276), the possible differential associations of these dimensions with several indicators of well- being (life satisfaction, positive and negative affect, self-esteem, and loneliness) are analyzed. Regression analyses revealed a differential pattern of relationships for each humor dimension. In general, a greater use of benign humor was indicative of higher levels of well-being, while a more frequent use of deleterious humor reflected poorer levels of well-being. These results serve to expand the available information about the existing differences between these two dimensions of self-directed humor.
