Research has shown that humor and the resulting laughter can reduce tension and increase well-being. If humor could also reduce anxiety the use of it may be especially beneficial for the students in dread courses like statistics. This paper reviewed studies about the effect of humor used in statistics lectures on motivation, statistics anxiety, and learning. Results showed that humor has a positive effect on motivation and it further can reduce anxiety. Humor has also been shown to have a memory-enhancing effect but findings about the effect on learning and recall in statistics classes are inconsistent and require further research.
