本研究首次探讨心理治疗早期治疗联盟与人际互补性之间的关系。在第三次治疗后，来自不同门诊设置的36对患者和治疗师使用工作联盟量表记录了他们对治疗联盟的看法，并在人际交往检查表上对彼此的治疗行为进行了评分。结果显示，患者-治疗师之间的人际互补性与患者和治疗师对联盟的感知呈正相关。相关性还显示，患者的人际行为越极端或不正常（由他或她的治疗师评定），患者和治疗师在他们的关系中越感到不积极的工作联盟。
This study is the first to examine the relationship between the therapeutic alliance and interpersonal complementarity during the early stage of psychotherapy. After the third therapy session, 36 pairs of patients and therapists from a variety of outpatient settings recorded their perceptions of their therapeutic alliance using the Working Alliance Inventory and rated each other’s therapy behaviors on the Check List of Interpersonal Transactions. Results revealed positive associations between patient-therapist interpersonal complementarity and both patients’ and therapists’ perception of the alliance. Correlations also revealed that the more extreme or abnormal the patient’s interpersonal behavior (as rated by his or her therapist), the more both the patient and the therapist perceived a less positive working alliance in their relationship.
