@SNiehuis @AlanReifman @EmmaGrossmann et al. found that this item performed well on its own. Researchers may consider sticking to this item when evaluating satisfaction between groups. You can also use some more complex modeling procedures, outlined in the discussion. (7/8)

P.S. Probably the best part of this dissertation process was my wife's reaction when I said "heteroskedasticity" while practicing my defense.
