Sammendrag	In vivo coding is a qualitative first-cycle coding strategy in which the researcher uses the participants' own words or short phrases verbatim as code labels, rather than imposing researcher-generated or theoretical language. The technique preserves the voice, meaning, and conceptual priorities of participants, making it especially valuable in grounded theory, phenomenology, and any study where honouring the emic (insider) perspective is central to analytic integrity.	Thematic Analysis (TA) is a qualitative research methodology for identifying, analyzing, and reporting patterns (themes) in qualitative data. Developed systematically by Virginia Braun and Victoria Clarke (2006), TA is flexible and accessible, applicable across diverse theoretical frameworks and data types, making it one of the most widely used qualitative methods in psychology, health research, and social sciences.
