common factors that can explain the order or structure
among the measured latent variables. For example, based
on Figure 3.5, “8 items coloured with green” measures
Factor 1, “5 items coloured with purple” measures Factor 2
and “6 items coloured with red” measures Factor 3. On the
other hand, a problematic construct consists of items
which overlap with the other domains, which will
preclude it from identifying only those factors that can
explain the order or structure among the measured latent
variables.
