Abstract

This study aims to examine the way individuals use humor and its effect on organizational dissent behaviors. This study, which was carried out with academic and administrative staff in various units of a state university, it was investigated which type of dissent the individuals chose when reporting their dissatisfaction and whether they used humor as a dissenting message. As a result of the analysis, it has been seen that the way individuals use humor has an effect on the selection of organizational dissent behaviors. When individuals have a self-enhancing humor style, follow an articulated dissent, they move away from displaced dissent.
