A research team of Martin Luther University has conducted a survey involving one hundred and fifty four couples on the topic of laughing at other people and being laughed at.

Respondents who can be self-deprecating and make fun of themselves in order to make others laugh reported been more satisfied in their relationship, more attracted to their partner, and more satisfied in their sex lives. This correlation was particularly strong among women, on the other hand people who feel being laughed at tend to be less satisfied in their relationships and less attractive to their partners. However, enjoying laughing at people alone was not correlated with relationship satisfaction and tended to increase the frequency of argument.
