Abstract

Background: Humor is an important quality, which is highly effective in human communications. Despite its advantages, if Humor is not used correctly, it may have unethical outcomes, springing to the mind a vague picture of Humor’ s intrinsic morality. Therefore, the current study sought to explain the nature of Humor and compare it with similar concepts in order to establish its limits as a behavioral quality. To this end, the paper conducted a narrative review of existing definitions and theories in the relevant papers and books as well as English and Persian dictionaries. Conclusion: The Results: showed that Humor (a quality) and Humor/fa?page=1&sort=1&ftyp=all&fgrp=all&fyrs=all" target="_blank">Sense of Humor (a combination of personal attributes) are positive ethical concepts that may produce negative outcomes in case of the following: (1) imbalance and (funny) content violation (exceeding the Humor limits), (2) excessive use of Humor (in terms of frequency and periodicity). As a result, Humor is likely to have unethical outcomes, but Humor/fa?page=1&sort=1&ftyp=all&fgrp=all&fyrs=all" target="_blank">Sense of Humor is always a positive behavioral quality. To demarcate Humor morally, it is necessary to compare it with similar and related concepts; such a comparison requires the following: (1) intention and purposefulness (positive and well-meant), (2) Minor violation. In line with this, this paper compared Humor with several similar concepts including witticism, jokes, sarcasm, irony, mockery, derision, teasing, etc.
