The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

The Role of Structural Equation Modeling in Scale Development (2003, background): “Therefore, as others have discussed and demonstrated (Rubio et al., 2001; Velicer et al., 1994), CFA tech- niques can provide additional information about both the dimensionality and appropriate uses of a scale.”
Internet Privacy Concerns: An Integrated Conceptualization and Four Empirical Studies (2013, methodology): “Such a model is typically included as a baseline model when testing for higher-order models (Rubio et al. 2001).”
The Ford Brand Personality in Chile (2004, methodology): “Since exploratory factor analysis, which was used by Aaker (1997) to identify facets within the five-dimension scale, does not afford testing models with high-order factors (Rubio et al., 2001), a more appropriate tool such as structural equation modeling (Jöreskog, 1993) was chosen to test the spec”
A Modified Involvement Scale (2007, background): “Failing this, the measure should be considered multidimensional (Rubio et al., 2001).”
