本研究目的在探討原住民族的幽默感、社會資本與工作壓力間之關係，並從幽默的社會功能面切入，根據相關理論與文獻推論社會資本在幽默感與工作壓力的關係中扮演中介角色。本篇研究以幽默感與社會資本作為預測變項，工作壓力為依變項，針對服務於製造業千大的原住民做為發放標的，共發放400份問卷，原始資料經整理與編碼後剔除無效問卷，共計226份有效問卷。採用因素分析與多元迴歸分析等統計方法，驗證幽默感、社會資本與工作壓力間之關係。統計分析後結果顯示，社會資本對幽默感與工作壓力間之關係扮演部份中介的作用，即幽默感係透過社會資本進而減低工作壓力。本研究得到下列結論：一、鼓勵職場中的原住民發揮幽默精神。二、原住民族職場工作者應善用幽默感以厚實社會資本，將有效減輕工作壓力。三、建構幽默感乃是透過社會資本的路徑以減輕工作壓力。綜合以上，於文末論述研究限制與未來研究方向。

This article investigated how indigenous adjusted to work stress that had not been widely discussed in literature. It seemed that there was the fake relationship between humor and work stress from the literature. Given this context we set out to (a) discuss humor and social capital impact work stress negatively and (b) explore the mediation effects of social capital on the relationship between humor and work stress.For testing the hypothesis, the research was conducted by purposive sampling and adopted factor analysis and multiple regressions. The result indicated that individual with high level of humor and social capital would affect work stress in opposite direction. Besides, social capital might have the partial mediation effect on the relationship between humor and work stress. Indigenous should inspire sense of humor in workplace and realize how humor mitigated work stress through social capital. The findings also gave some insight to construct theory on the relationship between humor, social capital and work stress. A few limitations should be noted in relation to this study for future studies.
