Compatibility of couple relations as the basis of the strong family

Abstract

The article presents the socio-psychological aspects of family values and their analysis in the scientific literature. Family values were studied empirically. Based on the results obtained, it was analyzed the role of couples in the family and their compatibility was considered. Relationship effects were widespread, implying that different family relationships had different characteristics. Participants' own ratings suggested that reciprocity would characterize all family relationships, strong correlations were observed between each person's self-rating, and only the marital and sibling relationship evidenced mutual reciprocity, as measured by correlations between relationship results found for relationship partners.
