The type of comparison to do between the table data. There are

MATCH PARTIAL is not
currently supported.
There are three match types: MATCH FULL, MATCH PARTIAL, and a
default match type if none is specified. MATCH FULL will not
allow one column of a multi-column foreign key to be NULL
unless all foreign key columns are NULL. The default MATCH type
allows a single foreign key column to be NULL while other parts
of the foreign key are not NULL. MATCH PARTIAL is not currently
supported.

Currently <productname>Postgres</productname> only supports MATCH
