Independence and Cooperation in Research. The Motivations and Costs of Collaboration.
Fox, Mary Frank; Faver, Catherine A.
Journal of Higher Education, v55 n3 p347-59 May-Jun 1984

Collaboration affects the advancement and integrity of research, and assessment and evaluation help determine the conditions under which collaboration is in the best interests of scholarship.
