The MIMIC model and formative variables: problems and solutions (2013, background): “331; see also Blalock 1972; Scriven 1966), the philosophy literature has seen considerable debate regarding what it is for one variable or event to cause another (Sosa and Tooley 1993; Pearl 2000).

Customer perceived value—Conceptualization and avenues for future research (2015, background): “…raises the question of whether Page 6 of 17 formative (aggregate composite) or reflective (latent factor) indicators should be considered (Baxter, 2009; Baxter & Matear, 2004; Diamantopoulos, 2010; Lin et al., 2005; Ruiz et al., 2008; Ulaga & Eggert, 2005; Walter, Ritter, & Gemünden,…”

Harmonization in CSR Reporting (2011, unknown): “The five items for each of the five scales were combined to form reflective indicators (see e.g. Baxter 2009; Coltman et al. 2008).”
