Contemporary models of psychosocial development include domains of development for interpersonal relations and cognitive complexity. Integrating these two domains to conceptualize interpersonal complexity is a useful construct for research purposes. Furthermore, the analysis of interpersonal complexity can benefit from approaching it from both rational and non-rational dimensions. The former can be done through Jane Loevinger’s conceptualization of adult ego development while the latter can be done through Gilbert Durand’s conceptualization of the Anthropological Structures of the Imaginary. Furthermore, the Washington University Sentence Completion Test is an empirically sound instrument to test the rational aspects of interpersonal complexity while the Archetypal Test of Nine Elements is an empirically sound instrument to test the non-rational elements of it. This article will conclude with research implications and applications of approaching interpersonal complexity from both the rational and non-rational dimensions.

当代的社会心理发展模式包括人际关系和认知复杂性的发展领域。整合这两个领域以概念化人际复杂性是用于研究目的的有用构造。此外，从理性和非理性维度对人际复杂性进行分析可以从中受益。前者可以通过简·洛夫温格（Jane Loevinger）对成人自我发展的概念来完成，而后者可以通过吉尔伯特·杜兰德（Gilbert Durand）对虚构的人类学结构的概念来完成。此外，华盛顿大学句子完成测验是一种检验人际复杂性合理方面的凭经验的工具，而九要素原型测验则是检验其非理性要素的凭经验的工具。本文将以理性和非理性维度来探讨人际复杂性的研究意义和应用作为结论。
