What kind of person is the one you ultimately married? How can a series of characteristics be matched between two people that will favor the fruitful development of the marital relationship? These are essential questions with regard to assortative mating, and it is clear that these issues have considerable practical significance. Assortative mating refers to the nonrandom coupling of individuals based on their resemblance to each other on one or more characteristics. Although hypotheses on assortative mating have typically been framed in terms of similarity (i.e., positive assortment ) and complementarity (i.e., negative assortment), numerous studies on mate choice have supported the similarity hypothesis. Homogamy has been reported for numerous characteristics, including facial appearance, relative stature, body mass index, physical attractiveness, education level, socioeconomic status, religion, mental ability, attitudes, attachment style, and some personality traits. Most people ultimately pair with partners who resemble themselves; however, there are some inconsistencies in the existing literature on the association between assortative mating and relationship quality. We have summarized the extant controversies with regard to three aspects, namely, the roles of perceived similarity and actual similarity, the association between similarity matching and relationship quality, and the link between dominant position and fitness of similarity matching. Specifically, the first controversy involves the question of whether actual similarity or perceived similarity is linked to attraction and relationship satisfaction. While some researchers maintain that actual similarity is critical for facilitates attraction, others argue that only perceived similarity is important. These researchers argue that satisfaction also leads to increased perceived similarity, and that perceived similarity further facilitates satisfaction. Second, although we expect that partners who are similar in terms of their psychological characteristics would get along better and be more satisfied with their relationships, the results of extensive research on this topic have been generally weak and contradictory. Several studies have found a positive relationship between similarity and marital quality for
