Answer:

The correct answer is the "dispositional theory of humor."

Explanation:

The dispositional theory of humor explains why one group of people might find the disparagement of another group of people funny. The degree of amusement experienced in situations where people suffer disparagement may depend in large part on the level of empathy felt toward the other group. A disposition theory of humor posits that the  more negatively someone feels toward the group being made fun of, the greater they can find amusement at the other's expense.
