Abstract

The objective of this study was to examine how deepfake-based humor becomes socially acceptable despite its potential to function as digital harassment. This study focused on psychological mechanisms that explain audience tolerance and normalization of harmful, identity-based humorous content in online environments. This study used a scoping review design to map and synthesize existing research across psychology, media studies, and cyberpsychology. The sources were identified through searches in major academic databases and were selected based on their relevance to deepfake technology, digital humor, online harassment, and psychological processes such as moral disengagement, online disinhibition, empathy reduction, and social norm reinforcement. The results indicate that acceptance of deepfake-based humor is commonly supported by four interrelated mechanisms, namely normalization through participatory digital culture, psychological distancing that weakens empathy, moral ambiguity created by humorous framing, and reduced accountability through diffusion of responsibility in online spaces. In addition, the literature conceptualizes deepfake humor as a hybrid phenomenon situated between remix-based entertainment and identity-targeting harm, shaped by platform visibility and engagement dynamics. This review highlights that deepfake-based humor may be tolerated not because it is harmless, but because it is routinely framed as “just a joke,” making its harm easier to minimize and socially overlook. Therefore, this study emphasizes the need for more direct empirical research and stronger interventions to prevent deepfake-based humor from becoming a normalized form of digital harassment in increasingly synthetic digital environments.

Abstract

Employee performance determines how a company will operate. Given the challenges and obstacles faced in the workplace, employee performance will decline if not balanced by appropriate personal competencies and resilience in the face of problems. The ability to cope with difficulties or challenges is essential for individuals to achieve success. Employees with a high Adversity Quotient are expected to be able to face any problems that come their way and continue to turn them into great potential for themselves, and ultimately maintain maximum performance within the company. The purpose of this study is to uncover the role of the Adversity Quotient in employee performance at PT X in Surabaya. This study uses a quantitative research method with a correlational design. The sampling technique used purposive sampling, with the following population criteria: a) employees, both male and female; b) length of service > 1 year. Data analysis employed simple linear regression. The results indicate that AQ has a significant influence on employee performance. One implication of this study is that the company can integrate AQ development into its existing policies.
