Although the progressive reduction in accommodative amplitude with increased age is well documented, little is known about several other aspects of static or steady-state accommodation to provide a comprehensive assessment of changes related to age and presbyopia. Static components of accommodation (tonic accommodation, depth-of-focus, slope of the stimulus/response function, and accommodative ...

Grounded in communication accommodation theory, this research examined Taiwanese grandchildren’s (N = 100) and grandparents’ (N = 108) perceptions of communication behavior in grandparent–grandchild (GP–GC) interactions. This study investigated noncommunicative and communicative predictors of communication satisfaction, liking, and emotional closeness in the relationship. Regression analyses sh...

[Abstract] Piaget’s schema theory renders a new perspective on translation as process and as product. Assimilation, accommodation, and equilibration, the three major concepts of this theory, are used for the schemabased construction of comprehension and reproduction in translation as well as that of translation as product. Based on such a construction, this paper reveals that assimilation and a...

Purpose: Accommodation of artificial phakic eye after IOL implantation is well known. By the classical theory of Helmholtz, it is incomprehensive and called as “false accommodation”. In the present study we used modern technique to measure the triad of near response by TriIRIS. Among the triad, accommodative stimulus is employed as a trigger and accompanying pupillary reaction with converging e...

in this paper, we discuss the ways that communication accommodation theory (cat) can be a useful framework for understanding and diagnosing interactional issues in interpersonal and intergroup conflict situations. we argue that the theory’s construct of attuning strategies provides a multidimensional view of mutual adjustment, leading to insights relevant to successful versus unsuccessful confl...

purpose: to evaluate the range of accommodation lag and it's signs and symptoms in 20-25 year-old female students at zahedan medical school, iran. methods: three-hundred female students were enrolled for assessment of accommodation. after exclusion of individuals with individuals with accommodation disorders in 3 steps including amplitude of accommodation, accommodative facility, and relat...

This study expands on a geometric model of ocular accommodation (Reilly and Ravi, Vision Res. 50:330-336; 2010) by relaxing assumptions regarding lens symmetry about the equator. A method for predicting stretching force was derived. Two models were then developed: Model 1 held the equatorial geometry constant at all stages of accommodation, while Model 2 allowed localized deformation at the equ...

Purpose. To evaluate the movement of the anterior and posterior lens poles during naturally stimulated accommodation in children using anterior segment optical coherence tomography (OCT). Methods. This is a prospective, observational, noncomparative case series including 18 eyes of nine children. Analysis of the anterior segment in the accommodated and unaccommodated state (with cycloplegia) wa...
