Ah, thankyou, Mike !
Yes, indeed, these definitional questions are fundamental to the topic.

For me, the construct of intelligence is an illuminating domain for
exploring the ways in which a cultural meaning-system links various
facets of human behavior and experience, and informs the recurrent activities
of a community of practice.

I will gladly enlarge on this in subsequent discourse over the net.
But I have still to fulfill my pledge to myself and my students to
read your new book and learn how you currently conceptualize
the culture/psychology interface. So, maybe I should read that first
before trying to connect on this particular topic.
