    • 2008, David Kember, Reflective Teaching and Learning in the Health Professions, page 52:
      Reflective learning is like a light bulb in my mind; it will switch on suddenly. [] The nonreflectors were those who were very descriptive in their journals and made no effort to integrate prior knowledge with new appreciation.
    • 2017, Joke van Velzen, Metacognitive Knowledge, page 154:
      Nonreflectors simply thought through that which they already knew, reflectors evaluated experiences by interpreting these experiences, and critical reflectors re-evaluated their presuppositions to correct distortions in reasoning and attitudes.
