David,

Would it be correct to view Gutierrez and Rogoff's uses of the terms
"proclivity" and "repertoire" ("ways of engaging in activities stemming
from observing and otherwise participating in cultural practices") as
equivalent to your use of the term "cultural disposition"? Or is there a
distinction?

From your re-post entitled "Enculturation":
"Enculturation is the process of acquiring cultural dispositions through
enmeshment in a cultural community. I interpret dispositions broadly as
inclinations to engage with people, problems, artifacts, or oneself in
culturally particular ways."

Thanks,

- Steve
