Humor Research

This page contains information pertaining to humor research (e.g. academic humor journals, scientific organizations, conferences, etc.) and teaching of humor as an academic subject.

This site is part of my personal home page. I plan to update occasionally. Please send comments and suggestions for changes to my e-mail address. In order to save download time I have fractioned the site; please use icons on the left, or links on the bottom of the pages to navigate.
