Seriously, It's Good to Laugh at Yourself

Are you really, truly capable of laughing at yourself? If so, it's a good sign that you have an _ 41 personality and a good sense of humor, a new study suggests.

In the first-ever study of its kind, researchers from the University of California, Berkeley (加州大学伯克利分校) and the University of Zurich studied 70 42 students to judge their ability to laugh at themselves. The findings support what has long been believed: being able to laugh at oneself is not only a distinct trait, but is also 43 with having an upbeat personality and good mood and may be the 44 for a good sense of humor. Participants in the study were asked to rate their ability to see humor at their own expense. They also asked one or two friends to rate them on the same characteristic. While the students were filling out the questionnaires on a computer, its camera secretly

_ 45 _ their faces. The pictures were then __ 46 _ using software to make them look like distorted (扭曲的), funhouse-mirror images.

Afterward, the participants were asked to rate distorted photos of people they didn't know. Their own distorted images were ___ 47 _ inserted into the sequence and that's where the experiment really started. Participants were videotaped as they viewed the images to see whether they laughed or smiled at themselves. The videos were how real the participants' expressions of humor were.

Eighty percent of participants truly smiled or laughed at least once when seeing their own silly images. However, those who claimed to have the ability to laugh at themselves and whose friends' assessments __ 48 _ their own truly laughed and smiled more often and more intensely than the others.

The study found that people's ability to laugh at themselves had no bearing on how much they laughed or smiled in response to the distorted images of others that suggests that the phenomenon is a _ 49 _ characteristic, one linked with your own mood and personality, rather than the tendency

to simply find silly images funny.
