[Abstract] Background: Laughter is a universal expression of emotion for humans, and it has been linked with health and well-being. The purpose of this study is to clarify the physical and psychological effect of laughter by scoring procedure of facial expression. Method: During a period of a month, a total of three interventions to induce laughter were conducted for 22 adults. During the interventions, data on facial expression and vital signs were collected for future analysis, and psychological examinations were conducted. Measures related to quality of life, including scores on the Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey version 2, did not show signs of improvement between the measures before or after interventions for mean participants. Results: Those participants who laughed more heartily, showed significant reductions in their scores for Tension-Anxiety, and Pain. The male group, as a whole, had significantly lower scores for happiness according to the data for facial expression. Conclusion: This study suggests that laughter may not bring positive changes to total quality of life. However, it does appear that the effects of laughter may be more easily demonstrated for participants who are not habituated to its effects, which would depend on the specific intervention used and the context in which the laughter takes place. |
