Specify the relationship between the latent factors. Estimating a correlation between factors is declared by joining the two factors with an asterisk (e.g., F1*F2)
1.How can I know whether F1 and F2 has relationship?
2.Suppose every factor has relationship with others, then I will add COV=F1*F2*Fn to each mirt model?

mirt package is really good, thanks for any help!

Do they theoretically correlate? And if so, is this supported by data (i.e., estimate it).

Yes.

What's the standard used to check whether COV should be used?
correlation coef >0.7?

If you have *one* construct and examine the contents in many ways, considering bifactor solutions.
