Objectivity is to make judgments about a certain idea or concept without any prejudice or bias. According to the readings, objectivity is the opposite of subjectivity. While subjective means that the idea exists only in the mind (Trust in Numbers, pg 3), objective things are those that exist in the real world. 

I believe that 100% objective research is very hard to achieve because the bias that is inherent in our nature is difficult to achieve. As the author of the reading “Trust in Numbers” argued, “mechanical objectivity can never be purely mechanical”. He put forward an example of a command “please shut the door”. Then he explained that this action could not be done without the listener having some sort of background knowledge on what door is. The listener of the command could also raise questions on why the door should be closed or opened. I believe that it is inherent in the human nature that we ask questions about the ideas and objects that we see around us and by incorporating those questions and believes, or even the knowledge we have gained before, we are adding subjective aspects to a so called objective idea. 

The same reason applies for researches. When we are in the process of research, we first have to read many previous literature works on this topic. Through this process, we have already gained some knowledge about the topic that we will research. When we conduct the experiment and gather some timers, we have already made an assumption of what the conclusion should look like and we will often try to prove our assumption. That is, we are often, to some degree, biased toward our assumptions even before we design our experiments. I believe that it should be easier to achieve absolute objectivity if the researcher had absolutely no previous knowledge or experience in that topic before. That research may not even know what data analysis is or what the names of the experiment equipment are called. Of course, in reality, this could never be tested because no one can conduct a research on a certain topic without extensive background knowledge and studies. Therefore, in reality, I argue that pure objectivity could not be achieved in researches. 

For example, when I was interning in banks during summer vacations, I was once given a task of researching about a certain stock by my boss. Before I conducted my research, I have read about other analysts’ reports and have had some idea on whether this stock is preferable or one should sell this stock. Even though different analysts might have different opinions on this stock, I can still see how many analysts voted in favor of the stock and how many deemed this stock unfavorable. Then I am biased toward their ideas. Another situation is when I was given a stock, I should have at least some background knowledge on the firm or the industry the firm is in. Even if I were given a very advanced and scientific concept about, for example, a newly invented biological equipment, I should know something about how high-tech equipment is in the market, or how the biochemistry market is performing. From my own personal experience, I have never really achieved objective research because I will be already biased before I actually conduct a research.

The concept of objectivity is related with team formation to a high degree. When we are in a team, we would often act as if we belonged to the group and we will worry about how the rest of the team members thought of us. We will act in such a way that we wanted the others to believe who we are. For example, when I work on team works in the business school, I would act as if I were more mature and as if I were really a business professional instead of a student. When the team members are talking about a certain topic, people would sometimes conform to the team and agree just because they do not want to look like outsiders. This notion and this action made team discussions not 100% objective. In discussions, sometimes we follow suit and agree to the most professional team member, or the team member with highest grades instead of seeing the evidence from research data. The same logic happened with the author’s observations in the “Average American Epilogue”, page 285. The author stated that when they gave out surveys, some individuals wanted to be a part of the team, so “disagreement blended easily with accommodation to social surveying practices.” In that case, the society and the responses from other residents is comparable to a team. There are some people who give up their objectivity and acted so that they could be included in a society. Therefore, 100% objectivity in a team work setting is also hard to achieve.
