8 pages in length. Understanding the developmental path each individual takes throughout life requires the realization of how so many elements play an integral role in this overall growth.

[ send me this essay ]

Life Span Humor
[ send me this essay ]
A 4 page essay on the development of 'applied' humor over the course of an individual's life. Very young children make forays into attempts at humor that make perfect sense to them, but very often is completely missed by their caretaking adults. Studies of groups of college students show that students of either sex who view themselves as humorous and instigators of humor grew up with same-sex parents who were likely to joke and clown with them—the same behavior by the opposite-sex parent apparently had little effect. Children's humorous attempts need to be reinforced in order to help them to develop a humorous outlook that can serve them well during the 'unfunny' times of their later, adult lives. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
