The current research evaluates the existence of complementarity at an aggregate level. The complementarity of subject's views of themselves and their views of their closest friend in their relationship with them was evaluated in a sample of 346 undergraduate students. The Interpersonal Adjectives Scale was used to measure subjects' view of themselves and their closest friend. The evaluation of complementarity requires two steps; first, the validation of the circular order of the scales for rating self and other and second, the testing of complementarity between self and other ratings. The circular order of the IAS-R in rating self and other and the complementarity hypothesis were both examined using randomization tests of hypothesized order relations. Results demonstrated support for the circular ordering of the IAS-R in ratings of self and others and provided support for the complementarity of subject's views of themselves and their views of their closest friend. These results support further use of these measures in examinations of interpersonal theory. Support for the complementarity hypothesis provides support for the existence of complementarity in friendship at a very broad or stylistic level. The support for the concept of complementarity at this level suggests that people may indeed seek or create relationships with closest friends which allow them to confirm their own view of themselves. In general, the findings suggest that people may be more drawn to and/or more likely to maintain relationships where complementarity occurs. Made available in DSpace on 2011-05-07T12:05:39Z (GMT).
