Abstract
⺠We score individuals on a self-deception questionnaire (SDQ). ⺠We measure individual's laughter (facial expressions) in response to comedy. ⺠Individuals who score low on the SDQ laugh more than those who score high. ⺠We argue that self-deception serves to disguise ones beliefs and inhibits laughter.
