Data structure linking first-order codes to aggregate dimensions

First-order codes (illustrative)	Second-order themes	Aggregate dimension
“A lifeline”; “an open secret”; personal phones used	Shadow normalisation of AI use	Everyday AI use
Blocking “drives it underground”; “treat as a first draft”; peer review	Counterproductive vs practice-embedded control	Adaptive control
“Double-check every citation”; “rests with the human”	Intensified verification; non-delegable responsibility	Reinforced accountability
“No official safe pathways”; “do-it-yourself”	Absence of sanctioned pathways	Institutional constraint
“The rule changed because of practice”	Reactive governance adjustment	Co-evolution (provisional)
