Since the first factor in EFA output is always the one explains the largest portion of variances, I wonder if the same is true in ESEM - even with model specifications such as correlated residuals?

Thank you!

Mplus does not order the factors in EFA or ESEM so that the first factor explains the largest portion of variances.
