Abstract
ABSTRACT Studies comparing comedic and serious news have found conflicting results as to whether the inclusion of humor benefits learning information from those shows. Other studies examining learning from comedic news without a serious news comparison, based on whether the humor was presented as funny or informational, have also found conflicting results. This review offers some explanations for those conflicting findings, focusing on the methods and theoretical approaches used in those studies, and suggests a dynamic theoretical approach researchers in this area can take to get a better understanding of the impact of humor on acquiring information from comedic news messages.
