Supplementary Data Toward an AI-Enhanced Relational–Mechanistic Framework for ELT: A CIMO-Based Evidence Synthesis of Ecosystemic Governance in Open and Distributed Learning

This repository contains the complete supplementary materials (SM01–SM06) supporting the systematic review titled “Toward an AI-Enhanced Relational–Mechanistic Framework for ELT: A CIMO-Based Evidence Synthesis of Ecosystemic Governance in Open and Distributed Learning.” The dataset includes full inclusion–exclusion protocols, quality appraisal matrices (JBI, MMAT, AMSTAR-2), hybrid thematic coding framework, complete CIMO mapping matrix for 111 empirical studies (2015–2025), cross-level governance synthesis matrices, and negative case analysis with governance failure typology. All materials are provided to ensure methodological transparency, intercoder reliability verification (κ ≥ 0.80), configurational replication, and secondary analytical reuse. The repository operationalizes open science principles in qualitative evidence synthesis and supports further research on AI-supported ELT integration, ecosystemic governance, and digital justice in open and distributed learning contexts. All online supplementary materials (SM01–SM06) are deposited in the Zenodo repository and include: SM01: Inclusion–Exclusion Criteria and Full Search Strategy SM02: Quality Appraisal Matrices (JBI, MMAT, AMSTAR-2) and Scoring Protocol SM03: Hybrid Thematic Coding Framework and Codebook SM04: Complete CIMO Mapping Matrix for all 111 Included Studies SM05: Cross-Level Governance Pathway Synthesis Matrix SM06: Negative Case Analysis and Governance Failure Configuration Mapping These materials provide detailed coding protocols, intercoder reliability documentation (κ ≥ 0.80), abstraction procedures, and full configurational mapping across Context–Intervention–Mechanism–Outcome dimensions. In addition, the following appendices are included within the main manuscript file: Appendix A: Governance Failure Architecture and Level-Specific Risk Amplification Patterns Appendix B: Full Configurational Mapping of Propositions Across Contextual Variations Appendix C: Cross-Regional Governance Alignment Matrix Appendix D: Detailed Coding Protocol, Intercoder Agreement Metrics, and CIMO Abstraction Procedures Together, the supplementary materials and appendices provide complete methodological transparency, enabling independent verification of analytical procedures and facilitating future configurational replication studies.
