The purpose of the present study investigated the types of humor styles of preschool children, as well as the relationship between parents' humor styles, their children's emotionality, and peer competence. For this purpose, the data on parents' humor styles and their children's emotionality and peer competence were collected from 203 children 3-5 years of age who were enrolled in 3 educational institutions for young children in the Seoul area, and from their parents. Basic statistical calculations including averages, standard deviations, and variances of the collected data were calculated for the analysis of the humor style of the fathers and mothers, and Pearson correlation analysis was conducted to examine the relationship between the parents' humor styles and children's emotionality and peer competence. The results are as follows: it turned out that both fathers and mothers use social humor most frequently, and fathers use more humor in general than mothers. In addition, the analysis of the relationship between parents' humor styles and children's emotionality and peer competence showed that children's emotionality has to do with their mothers' humor styles, whereas children's peer competence has more to do with their fathers' humor styles. Finally this study found that parents' humor style has an impact on the development of children and provides a new perspective on positive parenting attitudes.

본 연구는 휴대용 게임기인 닌텐도 DS Lite의 타이틀 중 유머 요소를 지닌 게임 타이틀에서 사용자들이 짧은 시간에 집중적으로 게임에 몰입할 수 있도록 돕는 역할을 하는 유머 요소가 더욱 빈번하게 발견됨을 알 수 있었다. 또한 본고에서 제시한 유머 요소 평가표를 기준으로 게임 타이틀을 분석하였을 때, 가장 많이 사용되고 있는 유머의 요소는 과장임을 알 수 있었다. 스토리를 과장하거나 캐릭터의 외모나 성격, 또는 행동을 과장함으로써 유머를 만들어내는 것은 '과장'은 복잡한 인지적 처리과정 없이도 사용자가 빠르게 유머를 이해할 수 있는 장치이기 때문이라고 여겨진다. 휴대용 게임기는 다양한 연령층과 다양한 상황에 어필하기 위한 전략으로, 언제 어디서나 간편히 몰입할 수 있는 단순한 조작과 쉬운 스토리텔링 구조를 내세우고 있다. 이러한 휴대용 게임기의 스토리텔링에 적절한 유머 요소를 도입하여 사용하는 것은 사용자의 몰입을 한층 심화하는 데 도움이 되어, 퍼즐이나 스포츠, 액션 게임 등의 단순한 형식의 게임 위주의 플레이에서 벗어나 보다 다양한 게임을 즐기는 데 도움이 될 것으로 예상할 수 있다.

일반 대화속에는 물론, TV광고, 포스터, 신문, 잡지 등에 광범위하게 이용되고 있는 유머는 창조적인 사고로 아이디어를 개발하는 디자이너에게 훌륭한 표현수단이 되고 있으며 어떤 표현방법보다도 포용력 있고 설득적인 중요한 수단으로 그 가치와 함께 끊임없는 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 그러나 지금까지 유머에 관한 연구는 광고를 중심으로 상품구매에 미치는 영향에 관한 유머 소구효과가 대부분이라 실제로 새로운 표현방법을 개발하고자 하는 디자이너에게는 이러한 연구자료가 이용되지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 따라서, 수용자인 대중에게 효과적인 메세지 전달을 하기위해 노력하는 디자이너 입장에서 새로운 연구가 계획되어야 하며, 객관적으로 검증되고 실제적으로 활용가능한 자료가 필요하다. 본 연구는 인간의 가장 기본적이며 공통적 언어인 유머를 통하여 타이포그래피의 새로운 표현방법을 제시하고, 각 유형별로 어떠한 표현 특성이 있는지 분석하여 그를 토대로 디자이너와 대중이 공유할 수 있는 보다 타당성있고 효과적인 유머 표현을 위해 이의 효용성을 실증적으로 고찰하였다. 이러한 결과를 토대로 타이포그래피의 유머적 표현방법이 대중에게 어떻게 지각되고 있는지를 알고, 실험을 통해서 디자이너가 아이디어 개발에 접근해 가기를 바라며, 그러한 작업이 이루어질 때 보다 객관적이고 적합한 디자인을 계획할 수 있고 나아가 메세지 전달효과를 증대시킬 수 있다.

이 연구는 유머 종류에 따른 유머 선호와 활용이 성별 연령별로 어떠한 차이를 보이는지 알아보았다. 이를 위해 수도권 지역 143명을 대상으로 한 설문조사 내용을 분석하였다. 분석결과 유머 종류에 따른 유머 선호와 활용에 있어서 성별로는 남성이 여성에 비해 공격적 유머를 선호하는 것으로 나타났으나 전체적으로 큰 차이는 없었다. 하지만, 연령별로는 상당히 많은 차이가 났다. 특히, 10대는 비언어적 유머를 선호하는 반면, 40대 이상은 언어적 유머를 선호하는 것으로 나타났다. 활용에 있어서는 $10{\sim}20$대를 중심으로 하는 저연령층에서 유머를 더 많이 활용하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 성별에 따른 차이보다 연령별 차이가 큰 이유에 대해 한국인의 전통적 체면 의식과 연관시켜 논의하였다.

한국 기업과 사회에서 변화하는 문화적 흐름에 따라 유머는 유용한 인상관리 기법이 될 수 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 유머를 성공적인 인상관리 기법으로 활용하기 위하여 이해해야 되는 요소들을 확인하는 것에 있다. 본 연구는 참여적 관찰(participant observation) 과 인터뷰(semi-structured interviews) 를 통한 질적 연구를 진행하였다. 참여자들은 유머를 통한 인상관리가 대부분 유교문화에 기반을 둔 상대적 역할에 맞춰 사용되며, 상급자(superior) 가 더 적극적이고 다양하게 사용한다고 인식하였다. 그러나 상대적으로 젊은 참여자들은 유머가 기업의 역할에서 벗어날 수 있는 독창적인 인상관리 기법이 될 수 있으며, 이 과정에서 유머가 다양한 해석 및 결과를 나타낼 수 있다는 인식이 참여자들에게 불안감과 스트레스를 주는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 유머를 사용할 때 환경과 소통하는 대상의 문화적 성향을 고려하고, 기업들은 효과적인 인상관리 기법에 대한 교육을 도입해야 의도하지 않은 결과를 피하여 긍정적인 결과를 얻을 것이다.
