Laughter can communicate a lot more than good humor – people use it to smooth social interactions

Retrieved on: 
Tuesday, July 25, 2023

In fact, when recorded laughter is slowed down, listeners can’t tell whether the sound is from a person or an animal.

Key Points: 
  • In fact, when recorded laughter is slowed down, listeners can’t tell whether the sound is from a person or an animal.
  • Sometimes we double over and lose our ability to speak for a moment, reverting temporarily to hooting apes.
  • Known as a “play signal,” mammalian laughter accompanies playful interactions to signal harmless intentions and keep the play going.
  • For humans, laughter has expanded from its original function as a play signal to serve a variety of social functions.

Laughter smooths social interactions

    • Laughter is a way to communicate that an interaction is playful, harmless and unserious.
    • An awkward exchange, a misunderstanding, a mocking joke – all these potentially uncomfortable moments are smoothed over by laughter.
    • They will be likelier to agree that the two of you have something in common, which is a key ingredient in social connection.
    • I suspect people borrow and transform the play signal of laughter to influence situations that, on their face, have nothing to do with play.

Laughter sends a message

    • This got me thinking: Maybe people change the sound of their laughter depending on what they want to communicate.
    • After all, while some forms of laughter are considered uncontrollable – the kind that leaves you physically weak and running out of oxygen – most everyday laughter is at least somewhat under your control.
    • It turns out that there are already a lot of studies looking at different forms of laughter.
    • Although their perspectives and methods differ, researchers agree that laughter takes many acoustic forms and occurs in many different situations.

Pleasurable, reassuring or threatening

    • First, there’s reward laughter.
    • This type is most clearly linked to laughter’s evolved role as a play signal.
    • It is pleasurable to hear and produce, thus making a playful interaction even more enjoyable.
    • And because you look and sound so silly while doing it, laughter ensures no one takes themselves too seriously.
