__Adjustment Factor__ = used within **DynamicISF** and is a value set within a user's **Preferences** between 1% and 300%. This acts as a multiplier on the **TDD** value.
- increasing the **Adjustment Factor** value above 100 % makes **DynamicISF** more aggressive: the **ISF** values become smaller (i.e. more insulin required to decrease **BG** levels a small amount)
- lowering the **Adjustment Factor** value under 100% makes **DynamicISF** less aggressive: the **ISF** values become larger (i.e. less insulin required to decrease **BG** levels a small amount).
