比较了四份保守主义问卷（C-Scale; Wilson and Patterson, 1970； POI; Eysenck, 1976； MK; Cloetta, 1983; 16PF-Q1; Schneewind, Schröder and Cattell, 1983）基于不一致-解决结构预测幽默反应的能力。我们进一步研究了是否可以通过评估诸如固执、资本主义、僵化和不容忍模棱两可等变量来改进对幽默反应的预测。结果表明，保守主义量表在预测不和谐笑话、性笑话和拒绝无意义笑话的滑稽程度方面存在重叠。与其他幽默量表的相关性只存在于某些保守主义问卷中。幽默得分与保守主义量表的典型相关分析得出三个显著相关性（rc1= 0.65,rc2= 0.51和rc3= 0.44）。资本主义还与欣赏解决矛盾的笑话和性笑话有关。先前发现的不容忍歧义的影响可以被复制。
Four conservatism questionnaires (C-Scale; Wilson and Patterson, 1970; POI; Eysenck, 1976; MK; Cloetta, 1983; 16PF-Q1; Schneewind, Schröder and Cattell, 1983) were compared with regard to their ability to predict responses to humour based on the incongruity-resolution structure. We further investigated, whether a prediction of humour responses could be improved by assessing variables like toughmindedness, capitalism, rigidity and intolerance of ambiguity. The results showed that the conservatism scales overlap in their prediction of funniness of incongruity-resolution jokes, sex jokes and rejection of nonsense jokes. Correlations with the other humour scales were specific for certain conservatism questionnaires. A canonical correlation analysis relating the humour scores and the conservatism scales yielded three significant correlations (rc1= 0.65,rc2= 0.51 andrc3= 0.44). Capitalism was also related to appreciation of incongruity-resolution jokes and of sex jokes. The previously found effects of intolerance of ambiguity could be replicated.
