Abstract
Findings were mixed and difficult to interpret. T-tests demonstrated greater use of aggressive humor in males than females but multiple regression analyses did not find this effect; furthermore, no differences arose between men and women in their use of self-deprecating, affiliative, or self-enhancing humor. Correlations demonstrated relationships between 2D:4D ratio and aggressive humor use but multiple regression analyses did not find this effect; furthermore, no relationships were found between 2D:4D ratio and any of the other humor types. Lastly, no relationships were found between gender role score and humor type use.
