Primes¶
- Enculturation
- The process is characterized by: (1) dual-channel structure: K_i includes explicit rules R_e (can be articulated and taught) and implicit patterns R_i (operate at pre-reflective level), with R_i comprising the larger portion and being harder to transmit deliberately; (2) agent diversity: different agents introduce different elements (mothers typically transmit primary kinship and nurture practices; peers transmit age-cohort values; occupational mentors transmit specialized knowledge); (3) partial acquisition: typically K_i ⊂ K, with K_i depending on i's role, gender, age, and life trajectory; (4) lifelong trajectory: enculturation intensity is highest in childhood but continues through adult socialization, occupational role acquisition, and status transitions, with some cultures explicitly managing transition rituals (initiation rites, coming-of-age ceremonies, professional licensing)
This sourceFoundational treatment of status and role and their relation to cultural expectations — supports the lifelong-trajectory claim including occupational role acquisition and status-transition rituals (D29-097).

- Role
- A role is a slot defined by a bundle of expected behaviors, rights, and obligations that is decoupled from whoever happens to occupy it, so that different occupants are interchangeable within the slot and the slot persists when its occupant changes.
