The questionaire is online at https://github.com/SachaEpskamp/SEM-code-examples/blob/master/CFA_fit_examples/StarWars_questionaire.pdf. The authors of the questionaire defined a measurement model before collecting data: Q2 - Q4 are expected to load on a "prequel" factor, Q5 - Q7 are expected to load in a "originals" factor, and Q8 - Q10 are expected to load on a "sequal" factor. Finally, Q1 is expected to load on all three.
