This article presents a coding scheme to clarify teachers' verbalizations of interactive cognitions in classroom management situations noticed from an actor's perspective. Twelve secondary teachers taught a class wearing a front view camera. Classroom management situations they noticed as salient were identified in-action by hand signaling and combined with stimulated recall based on front view videos to explicate accompanying interactive cognitions. Content analysis of verbalized cognitions resulted in a comprehensive coding scheme with four code dimensions: Level of Activated Cognitions, Involved Actor(s), Classroom Management Aspect, Classroom Management Action. The coding scheme contributes to investigating teachers' cognitions accompanying own classroom management behavior in an integrative way. •Teachers' interactive cognitions in noticed classroom management situations.•Verbalizations of interactive cognitions captured from an actor's perspective.•Stimulated-recall interviews based on front-view videos.•Multi-dimensional coding scheme for clarifying interactive cognitions.•Coding scheme for mixed-method investigations across expertise groups.
