| Abstract | This Brief Report presents tested instructions for facilitating the Laughie (Laugh Intentionally Everyday) Laughter Prescription in a group setting. The Laughie is a rapid, 1-minute prescriptive technique conceived to encourage participants to harness the positive outcomes associated with laughter. The Laughie was prescribed to Turkish earthquake survivors (N = 20) 3 times a day for 2 weeks in a laughter intervention that was delivered by the first author, a nurse faculty member at Hacettepe University Faculty of Nursing, Ankara, Türkiye. The report aims to describe tested instructions for how the Laughie prescription may be facilitated by nurses and health care workers to benefit participants within their communities. |
