Although various [[concepts]] of interpersonal compatibility have existed from ancient times (see e.g. Plato's [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lysis_(dialogue) Lysis]), no general [[theory]] of interpersonal compatibility has been proposed in [[psychology]]. Existing concepts are [[contradictory]] in many details, beginning with the central point -- whether compatibility is caused by matching [[psychological]] [[parameters]] or by their [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complementarity complementarity]. At the same [[time]], the [[idea]] of interpersonal compatibility is [[analyzed]] in non-scientific fields (see e.g. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astrological_compatibility Astrological compatibility]).
