Citations in the corpus

• Multicultural influences on group learning: a qualitative higher education study (2008, background): “Although there was some evidence that individuals with strong personalities initially attempted to coerce other members into following set goals and practices, most suggested that these ‘lone wolves’ (Barr et al. 2005, p. 81) became increasingly compliant and cooperative during the semester.”
• The problem of free-riding in group projects: Looking beyond social loafing as reason for non-contribution (2013, background): “The lone-wolf, who frequently excels academically, often lacks confidence in other group members, holding a belief that their work ability exceeds that of the others and that working with the group would be of disadvantage to them (Barr, 2005).”
