### Coding Framework

#### Initial Coding Scheme (if deductive)

| Code | Definition | Inclusion Criteria | Example |
|------|------------|-------------------|---------|
| {Code 1} | {Definition} | {When to apply} | {Quote example} |
| {Code 2} | {Definition} | {When to apply} | {Quote example} |

#### Coding Process

**Approach**: {Inductive / Deductive / Abductive}

**Coder Training** (if multiple coders):
- Training materials: {Description}
- Practice rounds: {N rounds}
- Disagreement resolution: {Process}

**Inter-coder Reliability Target**:
- Measure: {Krippendorff's α / Cohen's κ / % agreement}
- Target: {≥ 0.80 / ≥ 0.70}
