Styles of Humor of Charges and Educators and the Social Climate of Juvenile Correctional Institutions
Journal Title: Resocjalizacja Polska - Year 2016, Vol 0, Issue 12
Abstract
The article includes a presentation of the results of the empirical research, the purpose of which was to diagnose the social climate of correctional institutions for juvenile and the styles of humor presented by educators and charges of these establishments, as well as to determine the relationship between these variables. The questionnaire study (using the Social Climate Scale and Humor Styles Questionnaire) included a group of 162 charges and 52 educators from four Youth Educational Facilities. The study revealed that the social climate of Youth Educational Facilities is most similar to the “welfare-educational” type, and that in the intrapsychological and interpersonal functioning, both the educators’ and the charges’ adaptive styles of humor outweigh the non-adaptive styles. In addition, it was found that charges, through the presented humor styles, seem to have a greater impact on creating the social climate of the facilities they are staying at than their educators. The analysis of the results obtained in the context of the resilience concept encourages to treat humor in terms of a “plane of resistance”, which enables socially maladjusted youth to “bounce back from the bottom”.
