communication accommodation theory  

Definición

  • Communication accommodation theory (CAT) has much currency in the broadly applied arenas of interpersonal and intergroup communication, including in health contexts. Accommodating others has been a prime route whereby people can communicatively reduce (via convergent tactics) or magnify (via divergence) social differences between themselves and others in face-to-face interaction and through new electronic media.
