Developmental Psychologist Dr Elena Hoicka from The University of Sheffield's Psychology Department discusses her research on the origins of humour, exploring when babies first experience humour. She also discusses what drives humour development, including children's developing understanding of language, the social world and the influence of their parents.

Mind Matters is a talk series run by the University of Sheffield’s Department of Psychology. This series aims to bring psychological research to the public. This allows a chance for the public to learn more about what research goes on in the department and the real life implications of that research.
