congruousness
State of matching
Congruousness is the quality of being congruent—fitting together properly, matching, or being in agreement.
The word describes harmony between parts: the congruousness of her actions with her stated beliefs.
It's a formal alternative to the more common *congruence*, appearing mainly in academic or philosophical contexts.
