This article provides an introduction to this special issue on sense of humor and physical health. It begins by discussing several dierent potential mechanisms by which humor and laughter may benefit health. Each of these mechanisms has dierent implications for the conceptualization and mea- surement of humor or laughter, choice of research designs, and potential therapeutic applications. A brief overview of the articles in this special issue is provided, and their contributions are discussed in the context of past research on humor and health. The results of these studies point to some avenues of research that are not likely to be productive, as well as some potentially fruitful directions for future research. Remaining questions are discussed, and suggestions are given for future research in this area.

This paper reports the results of comparing source and target text jabs (from Raymond Chandler's novels translated into Greek) involving allusive Proper Names, with a view to accounting for the contribution of this grammatical category to humorous eect. The Proper Names discussed are sociocul- turally bound. Therefore, the dierence in production dates, sociocultural environment, and audience design has resulted in dierent strategies being adopted for their intercultural transference. This has provided the opportu- nity to check the traditional strategies against respondents' reactions to humorous eect and compare source text and alternative target text jabs us- ing the GTVH metric. Considering also the Cognitive Grammar account of the functions of Proper Names (PNs) has led to an interpretation of the un- expected finding that jabs with allusive PNs may well be humorously eec- tive even if their referents are unknown to the audience. The following factors emerge as crucial in this respect: the brevity of the linguistic sign, the specif- icity and concreteness of the evoked scripts, and the immediacy with which mental contact is established. It is suggested that replacing socioculturally- bound PNs in translating jab lines may jeopardize their humorous eect.

Previous studies have investigated how humor in general, but not specific humor styles in particular, is related to different coping styles. In the present study, 256 adults were asked to rate the funniness of 24 written jokes selected by the authors as representative of sick humor (humor on death, disgusting jokes, and jokes on disabled persons) and neutral, non-sick humor. In addition, they completed the Brief COPE Inventory (Carver 1997) and a religiosity index. Appreciation of sick humor was positively related to coping styles reflecting emotional expression and to use of humor as coping, and negatively related to religion measures. Appreciation of neutral humor was positively related to coping styles reflecting active coping and positivity in reframing. Although religiosity seemed to share with humor the latter coping styles, it differed in that it was negatively related to emotional expression coping styles and self-distraction, the latter style being typical of all humor indicators of the study. The discussion points out the reasons for distinguishing sick jokes from humor in general.
