There is e.g. the hearty laugh, which is excessively low in pitch, and perceived as incredibly dominant and may largely be motivated by showing off one's clarity, depth and loudness of voice which men use as means of intimidation, but which is likely also under [[beauty|aesthetic sexual selection]]. Very related to this there is the evil laugh which signals indifference to someone's suffering/low status (schadenfreude) and hence signals superiority.<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evil_laughter</ref> Laughing in solitude is hence a pretty meaningless activity, being fundamentally a social signal. | There is e.g. the hearty laugh, which is excessively low in pitch, and perceived as incredibly dominant and may largely be motivated by showing off one's clarity, depth and loudness of voice which men use as means of intimidation, but which is likely also under [[beauty|aesthetic sexual selection]].

Less dominant people | Less dominant people also accommodate their laughter to the voice pitch and style of their higher status partners and of the group, as it is the case with voice in general. Listening to audio recordings of hearty laughter (or any type of laughter one would like to mimic) several hours a day, as well as while sleeping subconsciously shifts a person's tone of voice/speaking inflection closer toward the audio stimuli's. This is an important part of conversation and phone [[game]]. | ||
