"Correction for Expansion" Setting in Material Tab

Hi.

Could somebody please explain me the "Correction for Expansion" Setting in the material tab for SLA prints?
My guess would be that the model is shrinked the amount to compensate for material expansion while curing, but I'm not 100% sure.
Sadly there is no help text explaining it.

Greetings
Christoph
