Una de estas estrategias terapéuticas fue el uso del humor a través de memes. El humor tiene una amplia gama de efectos positivos importantes en el bienestar emocional y las relaciones interpersonales. Teniendo en cuenta lo anterior, el objetivo de este artículo es analizar el concepto de meme; sus antecedentes como herramienta terapéutica; la relación entre memes, humor y la expresión humana de la risa; el impacto de estos tres últimos en la producción de cortisol y la oxitocina; los efectos positivos de compartir memes, y las estrategias para elegir un meme que pueda ser terapéutico.SciELO PreprintsSciELO PreprintsSciELO Preprints2022-04-11info:eu-repo/semantics/preprintinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/preprint/view/370610.1590/SciELOPreprints.3706spahttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/article/view/3706/7303Copyright (c) 2022 Carolina Gutiérrez de Piñeres-Botero, Juan Sebastián López-López, Jenny Carolina López-Pacheco, Franklin Escobar-Córdobahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPiñeres-Botero, Carolina Gutiérrez deLópez-López, Juan SebastiánLópez-Pacheco, Jenny CarolinaEscobar-Córdoba, Franklinreponame:SciELO Preprintsinstname:SciELOinstacron:SCI2022-03-03T22:02:36Zoai:ops.preprints.scielo.org:preprint/3706Servidor de preprintshttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scieloONGhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/oaiscielo.submission@scielo.orgopendoar:2022-03-03T22:02:36SciELO Preprints - SciELOfalse
