- Abstract: Playfulness has been referred to as a disposition that involves reframing a situation to amuse others and to make the situation more stimulating and enjoyable. Despite all the benefits of playfulness towards psychological well-being, it remains a largely understudied subject in psychology. Hence, this study examined the association between adult playfulness, humor styles, and subjective happiness among a sample of 166 university students in Hong Kong and 159 students in Guangzhou. Results showed that adult playfulness was positively correlated with affiliative humor, self-enhancing humor, and subjective happiness in both Hong Kong and Guangzhou samples. By its implication, highly playful Chinese students preferred using affiliative and self-enhancing humor to amuse themselves and others.玩乐被认为是一种性格倾向，以重构情境来娱乐自己或他人，并从中获取刺激性和趣味性。虽然玩乐对个人的心理健康有很多益处，但它在中国社会中却是研究不足。本研究以香港166 名大学生和广州159 名大学生为样本，对玩乐、幽默风格和主观幸福感之间的关系进行了调查。结果显示，在香港和广州的大学生样本中，玩乐与亲和型幽默、自我提升式幽默和主观幸福感均呈正相关。由此可见，高玩乐的中国大学生更倾向于使用亲和型幽默和自我提升式幽默来娱乐自己和他人。
