Voice 3 
“Although we know joy when we see it and feel it, we have almost no idea what it sounds like. There is a lot of information about the links between music and our feelings. In fact, there is a whole field of ‘music therapy’. But there is almost no research on the link between sounds and joy. It is great to see Cadbury look at this element and asking New Zealanders what they think joy sounds like.”
Voice 1 
Cadbury used the information from this study to create a short advertisement to sell chocolate in New Zealand. The advertisement used many of the sounds that make New Zealanders happy. The Cadbury company hoped this would encourage New Zealanders to buy more Cadbury chocolate. This is what the advertisement sounds like:
“Can joy make a melody?”
Voice 2 
Doctor Jarden points out that these are the sounds the people of New Zealand like the most. But what about people in other countries? What sounds bring joy to people around the world? Are they similar? Is children’s laughter the best sound in the world?

Voice 1 
Spotlight asked our listeners what their favorite sounds were. Most of them also said that some kind of laughter was their favorite sound! Javier said that his favorite sound was the cry of a newborn baby. Hector wrote that his favorite sound was the smile or laugh of a child. Todd agreed - his favorite sound was laughter too. And Maria said that her favorite sound was when her children were running to give her a hug and a kiss.
Voice 2 
Doctor Jarden believes there is a reason that laughter is our favorite sound. He believes it is important for our wellbeing. When people experience joy, they feel better. This makes their lives better. In a statement for the press about the Cadbury’s advertisement Jarden says:
Voice 3 
“Experiencing simple times of joy and taking the time to enjoy the good times in life are very important. Laughter is both a cause and effect of joy. People laugh a lot more on the weekends compared to weekdays. Laughter is also good for relationships, both building new ones and keeping old ones.”
Voice 1 
Doctor Jarden may only be trying to sell Cadbury chocolate. But his words also have some truth! People usually laugh when they are with people they like and feel comfortable with. There is an old wise saying about laughter: laughter is the best medicine! It can truly make people feel better.
Voice 2 
What do you think about this study? Is laughter your favorite sound? What sound brings you joy?
